Pressure, when taking screenies of models, do it in perspective view. Orthagonal view makes stuff look wonky.
And the hatch for the machine gun is overlapping the hole in the turret, which it probably shouldn't, and s44 tracks are a 2d - a single segment only has two faces (front side, back side) with no intervening parts
EDIT: And seeing as I'm here, here's my WIP
(Please ignore the WIP Hammerhead with dual weapons (ie missile launchers) / Skyray turret hovering above, and the fact that I didn't bother to smooth the drones properly)

Wow, pressure lines shows great progress here. And that TAU thing looks uber amazing, i would like to see the polygons to see how it's modeled...
Personally I have been struggling to get my basic design together for days now for a unit I'm making, the perils of making stuff up myself, that I'm not going to show until some great plans I have unfold... god I'm starting to sound like argh here.

it is in perspective view >_> <_<
and yes it should :) and ive fixed the tracks since that screenie
*edit* the M8 HMC is 95% completed now. i just have a few faces to fix up before i uv map it (and make an attempt and texturing it)

SU-76 wip, again pre meshing and ergo pre smoothing.
Built from scratch (except the headlight
), despite the commonalities with the T-70.

The plane looks pretty good, the helicopter might need some work. The texture just makes it seem more bulbous than it is... hurm.

Those units would look so much better nicely UV mapped and hand textured.

at first it will be a mini-mod; 5 tanks, 3 aircraft, command vehicle, 3 turrets, and attendant resource structures for each side

the other scout vehicle.
if someone wants to show me the way to some decent vehicle detail textures, feel free. i will reiterate that i have very very little 2d artistic talent.

imo black would be a better placeholder texture than that camo.

lol, welcome to the club pl. I don't really think the model is bad. With the right texture it could be made of awesome!
