No, the Mini-Tank will be a properly done Vodnik.

I've been finished for awhile now with the Up-armored HMMWV, just didn't feel or get the time to post the latest images until now. Will it's finished, but at nearly 8000 Tri's it's not done until I figure out where to cut down on to decrease the Tri count. For now hers what the finished vehicle looks like (not textured of course):

Very nice. Any ETA till skinning?

Delete small details and add them in the skin.
The indent in the rear fender end, skin it.
skin the Hooks on the front bumper
Simplify the mirrors
a edge below the front diagonal windows of the turret.
reduce quality of lights shape. (those things look more round than the wheels)
take sides off steering wheel. (dont make it look like the Support Humvee steering wheel though)
Un-Bevel the seats.
simplify the center console thing between seats. (un-bevel, un-leadge)
Can you add the turret as a separate object?

the frontlights and other small rounds will look fine with 5 sides, they cost a lot of polys

Thanks it'll help, but most of those HMMWV's are the older models that are being given to the new Iraqi Army.

Will we be seeing alternative humvees, with M240's and M249's on them?

I'll look into that. We already have a M240 modeled so I don't see why that might not be possible.

Yay, just enough to leave someone behind. It would be pretty foolish to make squads take two vehicles when a slightly unrealistic sixth seat could be added easily enough.

Why on earth would you do that?!

If we keep it realistic we can have the hilarity of a squad driving off without its squad leader
