Spring RTS Engine

Whilst a dragon head would look v cool, it wouldn't look very core imo. Matte metallic legs ftw imo

(If possible?)

Lol, someone realized that I turned the right arm into a counter weight


I am not sure tim, I maybe could do like a dragon head on the side of the barrel but at the moment I am not sure if that would be a bit too much.

Much like the T1 Artillery Vehicle! Smoth's twisty mind knows no bounds!

Huh...

This is a surprise?

I thought his arm was a counter-weight ever since I first saw it...

Humour, in text, is often missed by the young and restless. Or well rested.

That would be over the edge I think but now the barrel is a bit pale. I thought a spiral (not to visible but still there) could do the trick. Barrels have spirals inside for better aim control so I thought putting the spiral outside would not be so odd.

Maybe an edged out silhouette of a dragon can be nice on the side of the leg (one leg).

Why don't you just use the core logo for the decal?

core logo is cheesy.

Miss Piggy is fat

Core Logo = win

You should dirt it up a bit and make it look more deadly. Right now it's a bit too cute and colorful and would fit more into the -craft game series than TA. TA is much darker and I feel the models need to be that as well without resorting to the "OMG I'M EVIL" appeal. Less peronality, more cold steel killing machine.

dirt etc is a last touch.

Mr. D, the mrs piggy jokes, they are dull.

Ok, so I am pretty much done and now I am going to tweak his proportions.

Proportions adjusted(head smaller, slimmer waist, shorter legs longer gun larger "arms"):

I think it looks neat and it will look really neat when I do the reflective glowmaps and transparencies. I am going to add some polies for extra details after I do the transparencies. I'll post an ingame shot after it is done.

If I was actually going to insult you, don't you think I'd try harder?

Just playing around buddy

I know, I just get tired of the mrs piggy barbs, they never are very creative. To date the best barb was caydr's kermit avatar. That had me loling.

morty's lookin fine and ready to be spammed 23423 times

i think AK needs help more than most TA models

I can consider it but next on my list is the dominator.

Bah, all that is left is script adjustments etc. So, I am taking a bit of a break. Until then, enjoy the eye candy.

oh uh, FUCKING AWSOME, excuse my language, i can script it for you, and reanimate better walking animations.

That looks really cool. I hope to see it in CA soon.

That's excellent!
