Description
Drawn for: [link]Lines: [link]
only difference in the lines is i extended the armor plating on the back side to be in line with the plating on the front... before it was out of perspective and wrong -
render in photoshop, lines as usual in sketchbook pro
the Parthian Tank. designed to be heavier and rougher than a roman counterpart, but equally if not more effective. using massive amounts of bulk plating in place of advanced armor and ECM and overwhelming firepower in place of highly advanced munitions.
linear shadows blow balls... organic stuff is easier, so if any of this rubs your the wrong way the fate of the planet hinges on you letting me know and me probably not doing anything about it
... but seriously let me know

I say, with just looking at the details of its metal chain tyres, the piece itself is already very good. Not to say some small touches of the shovel up on its side.

indeed. it was commissioned as a super armored, super armed ass kicker, so i put as much retrofit armor on it as i could

Superb design. And I love your use of the greys on this, they make the tank so bright

i am also very happy with the rendering... the lighting i chose was very challenging, and wrong in some places - but it works, and i learned allot!

Huuuh...
I really can't see the difference you're talking about : "I extended the armor plating on the back side [...] before it was out of perspective and wrong"
Where?? lol I've been switching erratically between this one and the line art and can't see the change you're talking about.
Nice tank by the way!

on the skirt in the front, there are those large retrofit panels that start a few 'feet' after the top of the track covering begins. well on the far side, they started further back if that makes sense...

still think the guns look like Eye droppers. remove em, and put in some manly guns in there. They need to be HARD, and STIFF, and RIGID! Forceful and POWERFUL.
