Elkvis, it does have repulsorlift drives, and it has to stop in order to fire, whereupon it anchors itself to the ground by way of those struts you can see in the images there, which slam into the ground as it deploys.
Otherwise, what additional elements could you recommend?

I hope somebody can recognize this tank, it was quite well known in its time. I'll give you a little hint: it's fast.
I was going to guess BT-5, but going by the filenames, BT-7!

(very nice btw)

Yes, it's BT-7. I should have changed the filenames

It can be identified by its conical turret - only BT-7 (and only the last few series of them) had it, earlier BTs had cylindric turrets.
One more tank:

This time, file name won't tell you much.

T-26
Also, if you want to be helpful, model a M-30 howitzer please

Heh, alright... >__>
It was 744 tris.
Now, it has 614 tris, as of the current model. This one is a little old, but if I gave you screens of the optimized one, it would have only a differently proportioned barrel.

Ah indeed. Forgot to look at the tracks. Hmm the turret front needs some more work.

It's amazing what people come up with when your asleep, this time zone stough is fun

. Ok all the tanks look cool in my opinion, the only critique that I have is on the SWS tank, I think you should have a repalser animation on the back that maby flares as the gun fires so to make it look as if there is more strane on that repalser. Still just an idea

.
For my tank I was thinking of have it be like a jump jet tank at one point but the guns on the side are the anti swarm weppions. So the only way you can kill it is to swarm from behind.

lol competition

Yes, more or less, people can post tank models.
It is hardly a competition.

Woohoo, tankettes are amusing.
I like these competitons, they get people posting their stuff who wouldn't otherwise, even though it rarely ever actually gets judged.
It also helps provide feedback for models, without wandering into "hows you liek mah 3 boxxs" territory.
