Don't worry Rambo Hunter we will speak in English... ;)
As 162 said we were just joking. But we will never do a full post in French.. When we speak French it's like a PM we send to French Speaker :p

Happy to see that you have made progress on your motorcycle. I am eager to see it.

@Noobage : awesome...I hope someone will UV and put textures on your model in future days, I would be scared of all this work wasted... :(

This is the last unfinished render I'll post, I just need a little feedback. Everything, bar two minor pieces in this render is finished, but the back and other side of the IFV still need to be modeled. Everything has been properly scaled now as well, thanks to 162 for pointing out the problem with the back of the IFV.

but it is prettier :lol: just about, they are both butt ugly tanks compared to the Ariete or Type 98

Is it a reskin of Satnav's bike? I'm looking forward to it anyway, your Cobra looked spot on :-) .

thanks :)

Even though it means extra work for me, thanks for the feedback. Everything is looking a lot better on it now, and I fixed a few other flaws too :-)
For the wheels, I don't know if it's important.
I can do a good few things with <10,000 poly's, but I can't model decent wheels, they eat up the poly count. I usually just settle for basic, but nice and round wheels. If I made the wheels any more detailed they could easily end up taking up more than half of my poly budget.

I can't fix the gradient of the slope sadly, because it's impossible to rotate it without changing it's dimensions (and hence ruining all the detail attached to the side of the tank), and I'd ruin it if I tried to do it manually :(

Everything else is fixed though, hopefully this IFV will be close to the real thing

I have a question though: There is apparently 6-firing ports on the Type 89, and I'm assuming this is one of them

Image

however, on all the pictures I've seen the round things all look like this:

Image

I assume that the latter picture has a cover on or something, so should I model it the same as in the first pic? Sorry to ask all these stupid questions :P

IIRC no other APCs/IFVs ingame have functioning firing ports, despite the fact that their real-life counterparts have. So personally, I don't think we should deviate from that.

Just model it with the covers (no hole in the port) and not have any firing function for the players in cargo

WOOT! Toyota HMV!

I wish you good luck at it :) That's one of the main stuff needed for this faction.

I know...
Is anybody modeling the rifels and LMG?
