Concerning gameplay, have you tried any of the 1.x stuff? It's actually pretty darn good

Long explanation short, yep I would like for someone to remodel them for me (or a whole bunch of someones), I'm working on a bunch of really cool stuff atm (and so is lurker, once his finals stop kicking his ass

I'd like to point out that my models themselves aren't THAT bad, but the design of them is extremely bland, and could definitely be done much better by someone who isn't me and actually knows how to work well in a modelling program.
As overkill said, I originally wanted to try doing it myself to see if I could get them to a nicer state (which I accomplished), but nicer in this context doesn't exactly mean good

As you said swift, the game is far from neglected, I put a lot of time and a lot of trouble into fixing things as I find them, and a lot of time arguing with google and lurker regarding gameplay changes etc (so far they have won every time, and every time the game has largely benefited from it... All I want is for people who have a complaint is to validate it in a way that makes sense for the betterment of the game, and they are good at doing that).
I suppose the thing I don't trumpet well enough is there there aren't any restrictions on the remodel save one. The weapons have to look like they are capable of firing the current weapon. I'm sure that you all can agree that that is a fairly loose and reasonable request. For example, the terra lighttank shoots a laser. All I want for it's replacement is that the weapon mounted on the tank at least remotely look like it could fire that type of weapon.
Pressureline and overkill, I would LOVE to have anything you would like to contribute, of course everyone gets credit for their own stuff, and the model's / textures don't have to be ccbyncsa or however the hell you say it, like the game itself is.
This extends to everyone else here as well. The design doesn't HAVE to follow a particular asthetic. Lets be honest, TA designs didn't really follow any particular rules and it turned out very well imo. So there is some real freedom here for creativity.
