Cool looking models Runecrafter.

That Fortress is soo close to an idea I had just before I made my tank, I was originally going to make a tank that was basically a onland battleship.... Dam. Anyhow nice job. BTW,is that 418 tris or polys though? Not that it matters anyhow both would be under 1000 tris. Again, very nice job Runecraf...

My take on what a stealth tank could look like (I am aware that things such as the tracks and the slightly flat front would cause reflection and that radar isnt often used on ground vehicles IRL but its just a game). Its 636 tris, I will add detail if someone wants me too but stealth things usually ...

It could walk without hopping, but it would involve some ridiculus circular movements while balancing the body on two legs.

Other than that its a very..... Creative design.

Kewl design, except for that shield. Not too sure what its purpose is except to recieve fire thats not going to hit the rest of the body. What if it kinda wrapped around the side of its body?

Now I have to come up with something original........ I've got it, I will make a tank. Excellent.

The times on your early posts tell me different.

Why keep this as a Vehicle competition? Its probably been asked before but I couldnt be bothered reading through most of the dribble that this topic is. I mean already not many people have the spare time or effort to enter something thats going to require more than a couple hours making and will nev...

Oooh nice, never really got into the warhammer series although I always did love the kewl looking models.

Cheers Argh, will do. Truth be told I did make it with four legs because anything with more than two legs is just plain cool. Also It makes sense to have four legs and upwards for balance and stability issues. I mean look at the krogoth, sure its cool but it could never actually walk. Actually come ...

I was actually thinking about perhaps having an animation that would deploy "braces" or just have it stop hovering and plonk itself down onto the ground before it fired.

Anyhow its great to have some replies

I was working on a model earlier and kinda came up with an idea for a unit, not too sure it been done before and I'm not sure that it could work. A vehicle (hover in my case) that is fully mobile but has to plant/attach itself onto the ground before it can fire. Basically this means it would be a po...

Mmmm maybe. For all intents and purposes at the moment theres not much point, it looks kewler in a stance like that and looks are all that matters at the moment.

I see alot of.......... Extruding and changing the scale of faces, which is good.........If it imporves visual QUALITY.

Maybe I should make a Biped like everyone else has..... Dont wanna be the odd one out.

Done, but I cant seem to get the positions perfect, they are always out by about 0.001-0.002 when I use absolute commands, I think that part of the leg must not be straight or something. I cant be bothered looking through all the parts for the error, and 0.002 shouldnt make too much of a difference....

Righto, Gun size has been reduced. The guns were also changed a fair bit (they would now require a bit of texturing to look like decent guns). The arm holding the guns has been increased in size and he feat have had a few poly's cut off to make em look pointy. Feedback was good to have. Sorry rattle...

1124 Tris, not a bad effort for something with four legs, two guns and proper joints (joints that dont overlap, each other). Changed the model a bit, doesnt really have a head now, and the guns are now cannons. Heres the File: http://dl022.filefactory.com/dl/f/28a8cb/b/4/h/c4b736497024394e/ http://i...

OK, Just to clarify. By saying we can use perfect quads, does that mean I can select my model in wings3D, Quadrangulate it and quote the polygon count it comes up with? Or is this something else? Cause I have something which comes to 887 faces Quadrangulated, but 1668 faces triangulated :P. Also I d...

Keithus, otherwise known as "Keith". Sober for the most part between the hours of 5am-12pm. Biginner modeller, happy make models and stuff for stuff. If anyone needs someone who can model and "only" model gimme a shout or something on msn or pm me here. Reading guides on how to a...

I got the exact same problem aGorm, and you better not have an idea like mine I made a quick model of it earlier and its poly count was 1500 and it wasnt anywhere near finished. Not sure but I dont think there were many to kill either if any at all.
