Description
This is the untextured version of a low poly tank I'm working on. Inspired by the RTS games C&C3 and Dawn of War, so it's a low poly model. It has about 1500 polygons.The side machineguns can aim up/down and can do a 180 turn, so they can shoot infantry units all around the tank while the main cannon shoots other vehicles. The entire turret can do a 360, regardless of which direction the tank is facing, so it can shoot all around it.
I made this because I love all the different ways vehicles can shoot in Dawn of War: Dark Crusade. They don't just have one main cannon - they have MGs shooting left and right, on main cannon, smaller cannons all around, etc. and it's just great to watch them shoot stuff.
I have yet to map and texture this baby.

I love the simplicity.
Once this gets blown up I will loot the bitz and make my own, more killy tank with lots of dakka.

Great work dude!
I really love the look of the tank!
What program did you use to create this model?
See you later.

Nice one. Low poly effeciency, and detail, at its best.
It does resemble the new GDI mammoth tank, from C&C3.

Thanks. I was playing the C&C3 demo along with Supreme Commander and Dawn of War - Dark Crusade, so that's where the idea came from. I like the way the mammoths have 4 tracks instead of 2.

Hehe, thanks. It's one of those features that some Dawn of War tanks have...it doesn't help in any way, but it just looks cool.

Who cares about functionality, if it LOOKS nasty then thats all that counts

OMG Awesomness.
Do you think that once you finish texturing it, that i can use it in one of my terraspace scenes? But i would need like 10 different angles of it, tohugh, which could be a bit of trouble for you but anyways, Great job on that tank DXbig!
