Da vinci tank

I saw an article in W.I recently about building a Da Vinci designed tank. Then lost the mag in a spring clean. Anyway I made my own from balsa and cardboard and it's just good enough to put on the gaming table. Any idea on rules for this historically incorrect use of a early fighting vehicle?
