If you'd ever actually seen a T34 (or any other tank), you know that 20-30 feet isn't hardly enough distance, unless you use a ultra-wide-angle lens, which isn't common on the el-cheapo point-n-click disposable cameras someone was mentioning. Oh, and you cannot fit one inside a basement, either. Too large, especially in height.
First - I've seen plenty of tanks, including real T34s, several different models of them in fact. But based upon your words I am not sure you did. FYI the dimensions of T34 are 2.44m x 3.25 m (from the straigth front perspective). It not as huge as you seem to believe Arryn. In fact now that I think about it I even have the picture of me on top of T34 from about 1996 (but I will not claim that it was mine T34 )


Second - 30 feets is more than enough distance to show it. If you have any doubts just take a camera, walk 30 feets and look into it. And while you are doing it keep in mind that you can turn camera 90 degree if you like.


Third, I assume that Norf sometimes take his fictional tank outside the basement. He told us stories how he love driving it all over the place.


I could add more but I think that will be enough.
