I don't really like GDIHot dropping, like... a dozen drop-pods worth of Zone Troopers in front of your doorstep now.

Cool, the disc thrower is my favorite infantry unit in Tiberian Sun.

That's right.
They had the best firepower-to-cost ratio for any infantry, on top of being able to bounce discs further than advertised. And yes, aircraft hunting was never an infantry's league in TS, so it's not really worthy of being the subject of a discussion.

Great little trick with them is that if you have them attack the ground to pick off lasers. It worked fairly well once the disks bounced in the right direction

Yeah, I know that trick. It's just tedious; you need many Disc Throwers to do some real pain else the Lasers will repair the damages away. Only works best in low-tech death matches and single player missions.

I've succeeded with three to four I just made sure they all would go at correct angle so the discs ended up as close to a direct hit a possible. I wish I started doing this trick sooner because I lost ten disc throwers once on the second mission in single player because of that stupid trick where a nod unit wipes out your infantry all at once. That gets annoying really fast.

Long story short, the added range is just a minor bonus.

Do you play this game? I mean like any command and conquer?

Everything until Tiberium Wars, bro. ;)
Well, except Sole Survivor. Almost nobody likes it.

Well... excellent details to the pack and armor for one of the coolest units of the game. Pretty awesome man.

You know, it sucks that C&C3 and 4 don't have this GDI unit.

Second'd!
Oh, well, shiznits... That goes double for the rest of TS science -- mechs, hovercrafts, walls, drones, subterraneans, human mutants, nonhuman mutants, cluster missiles, chemical missiles -- you name it, they dumped it! Well, right before they spit it out again for "old time's sake"...
But then, at least C&C3 (no, not Kane's Wrath, good God, Epic Units are so ugly...) wasn't as reinvented as C&C4 and RA3. And quite frankly, I don't care much for anything past RA2 -- the C&C merchandise is probably dead, anyway.

I'd concur, me playing all the games (my dad is almost the biggest fan of Command and Conquer games in my family) buys most of them and I end up getting them. C&C 3 was their best title in my opinion, but Tiberium Sun is still awesome BECAUSE GDI still had control of the skies, ORCA's for the win bro!!

Awesome work (and excellent details by the way)! This is one of the coolest looked infantry unit in C&C universe.

Lol, I wish I had chances to draw when I used to work, instead, I had to stand around and act like I was doing something xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do get chances, but usually, they're too short for me to produce anything significant. This was done at home, anyway.

Very good picture! I'm not a huge fan of anime-faces on army stuff but I liked it nevertheless.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's okay. I'm not all hands for anime, too. But you can still appreciate Tiberian Sun's Disc Thrower as a whole, though: it's quite the classic infantry unit of the second Command and Conquer episode... which wasn't even animesque in the first place.

love the mechanical armour and the weapons. very nice disc grenades.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That is, of course, based on the blocky original design , only intended to be cooler.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
this is definitely more streamlined and I like the facial expression as well as the armour details.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
just a little suggestion: You should do a zone raider and a zone trooper together in combat.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I could, but there's other pictures I want to finish.
Anyway, plans are this Disc Thrower will be thrown in the same scene with a female GDI Light Infantry.

I understand, you can take your time, its just a small suggestion.
wow, pretty nice, can't wait to see the duo!
