Cool details. I downloaded that after looking at your last one. How you make these is beyond me, but kudos for creating something so technically cool.

Thanx bro! You know really I don't know how the hell I do it either!! I'm serious.. I just open wings and go at it and then all of a sudden.. Phoof! There it is! Really, it's like second nature to me. I could never make models this cool ever in any other program including 3ds max. Wings is just like an app for my brain or something! It's an amazing application that is way underrated I think!! Thanks for the comment!

Are you moving onto vehicles now?

You know, this reminds me of the Command Vehicle for Ground Control, but yours is also very cool, I specially like the tires. As usual of usuals, great job!

TDBK In reply to s2f [2005-03-09 09:57:44 +0000 UTC]

Well, I would not say I'm moving to vehicles per se. I'm just on that kick at the moment. I may not do a 'mech for a while though. I'm a little burnt out on 'em. I will do them again though because 'mechs are my favorite things!

lol, helmut sounds lame
well, its a nice thing but ehh... it looks a bit vulnerable to me, what about a bit more armor+another weapon

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TDBK In reply to RexWotan [2005-03-08 16:41:08 +0000 UTC]

Thanx man! Well it's based on this --> [link] I kept it mostly the same but changed it a little so it's not exact. The reason for the light weapons is because it's a command vehicle and is usually not in direct threat. It also need's to be fast and heavy armor and weapons will slow it down too much!

RexWotan In reply to TDBK [2005-03-08 17:22:42 +0000 UTC]

then think about the system of being able to hang on extra armor that system is used for some tanks

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TDBK In reply to RexWotan [2005-03-08 17:29:39 +0000 UTC]

Yea, it is possible to hang extra armor but then It would not be a command and control vehicle. The reason for it's low armor if to keep the weight down. This vehicle need's to be as fast as possible to be able to get out of an area. Or go to an area with a quickness. Remember.. Command and control hangs out in the background. It usually does not get involved in the fighting unless it comes under direct fire. I will be making troop apc's in the future. Those will be more armored and have better weapons.

RexWotan In reply to TDBK [2005-03-08 18:54:44 +0000 UTC]

ooh cool btw: the idea behind extra armor which can be hang on is being able to make it faster but when needed it can also wear armor so they can choose to be more vulnerable and faster or les vulnerable and slower

Thanx man! In the future you will not see that many dishes. They have low profile antenna like satilite radio antennas. The real prototype is here --> [link] and it has no antenna at all. I added them on mine though!

Oh, it's in the part when he's talking to the leader of the army of the castle that are fighting the demons. It's before they fight them and sometime around when they start building and training. (If I remember correctly) I can't remember the exact time it's on screen though. Sorry..
