Description
A mix between the style of Warhammer 40k boardgame and a modern artillery vehicle.
The Homekeeper cannon is a massive mobile cannon, that can fire more then 30 kilometers from its target. Because its mostly used in desolated flat lands its a bit higher and bigger then a normal tank. (More internal space and useable as a watch/sniper tower.) The defensive capabilities are not very good, so it normally should be guarded by some armored units.

NR. 52 here is trying to cross a piece of Tundra known as the "Umbrageous Plains". Lets hope they can cross it undetected as the daylight is already fading.

Specs:
Modeled with Npower's "Powernurbs" (in 3ds max 7)
Renderer: Brazil
Time used: 5 weeks, 3 hours a day.
Rendertime: about 17 hours.
Polycount: unknown
Textures: Mixtures of procedurals and bitmaps. Bitmap textures made in photoshop. Some simple uvw mapping was used.
Used objects from older scenes?: Yes, the minigun is older and so are the handguns.

Comments from myself: The minigun is a lot lower quality then the other parts, I might replace it sometime. The maingoal why I created this tank was to learn the basics of Powernurbs. About every edge is filleted. (and most parts that have to resemble one part, really are one part.)

I'm currently in the top 10 of Npowersoftware's Powernurbs gallery with this image. My first work on deviantART also.
