Re: Random WIP

i just need to polish a bit , working on treads etc...
and then making it ready for Spring RTS!
Pretty badass aint it?
Now Amphibious and featuring an Plasma/Laser Cannon!
i might add some few more awesome weapon for that T3.5 Tank!
maybe also hover? so you get kinda a BFT like tank in heavier format!
(This tank will be able to Hover , Drive on land and be amphibious!)
oh also you will be able to Dug in with it! (see TibSun Tick Tank)

Re: Random WIP
might be my second tank i think i am quite happy with my T3.5 Tank
it just needs to be polished and the thing down from the Turret needs to be improved aswell same for treads
also it should be amphibious i need to make parts where it will go out when the tank is in hover mode

Re: Random WIP
on the first images it looked a bit like random boxes shoved together but now it starts to look more like a real tank, cool.
Re: Random WIP
Yeah i just got issues how to make the Tank burrowed because my current design conflicts with the Nitro-Jumbo-Jet-Engine (Treidmark)
well atleast my tanks looks better then WW2/1 German Tanks (Tiger tank and their first tank lolz blockkys ftw)
also the tank img you posted reminds me the rhino tank from Red alert 2

Re: Random WIP
if you want to do a quad track i would suggest something a little more meaty, like this

your current tracks are kind of dinky, stabilizer leg like, and don't make it look like it could really move. as for 'jets' do you mean exhaust, because thats what it looks like you are going for now.
but because of your roller design would stick to a dual track so you can put the roller in front.

Re: Random WIP
no not exhaust i mean
look at the experimental tank with jet engines my tank will have one or nitro for car freaks
and i dont like those tracks :/ could you add an url or something like that wich shows some tank tracks?
Futuristic one maybe or steampunk style might fit it i think also i like Blocky like and not so soft and round i dont like that
Also i wont add that much of detail because i dont like when a few of those units are eating alot

Re: Random WIP
tracks like on bobs picture are mostly used for civil, slow moving vehicles like bulldozers or diggers. dont think you would but that on a tank really. maybe on heavy arti but def. not on a battletank.

for military vehicles you want more off road capibility, more suspension travel, more ground clearance, smoother ride because speeds are higher etc:

watch videos of tanks at high speed in heavy terrain, they can really bounce across it, impossible with bulldozer type treads.
or something like this maybe?

Re: Random WIP
Yes thank you i could use it to inspire me for it
though i am looking for blocky Track and not soft/smoothy with not too much bevel wich could be a light smoothy but thanks again
Edit;

It Rams everything it is the only mobile unit that is capable of pushing your mom
also it sprays chemical shit toxins acid etc...
Who is up for that i am making units especially made for Firework (not puny spark something REALLY BIG SPARKING EXPLoISVE FUN!) i have some on my mod but its pretty much undone even if its done after silvester

Re: Random WIP
Why are you making a new one? Current is imo very good and I prefer that over the new one.
Re: Random WIP
this one can be scaled, moved around, takes up less space and has proper information.

Re: Random WIP
nice melivn. very anime ish. the texture reminds me of legos for some reason.
Re: Random WIP
looks like a NOVA dervish from universe at war
actualy i find it to be futuristic rather than anime like, but looks good
