Falcon Grav Tank

Reactions: deepstrasz
I made this model long time ago, hoped Elenai to skin, but he was evidently too lazy. Fortunately I found a friend who could do it instead of him and me.

The Falcon GravTank is an Eldar armoured transport, capable of defending itself with its good weaponry but with a smaller cargo than the Wave Serpent.
This particular one is from the Eldar Craftworld of Ulthwe.

Texture and screenshot by Crusad3r91

UPDATE: Lessened the recoil in attack one animation and added a skin compatible with fire prism

Wow, this is truly a great looking model. I love the thruster particles and the overall design is awesome and could find many uses. excellent job on the texture too. The death animation could use work but it fits well. There is a KPR2 tag in a particle emmiter, that most likely is completely unnecessary and makes it unable for magos to open it. Whether or not it was intentional to "protect" the model still makes it rather irritating. BUT that aside, a really great model 5/5 from me. Keep up the good work

Update: KPR2 tag fixed, model opens in magos and performs beautifully, great job, i love the model.

nice model. 4.5/5

i suggest to change death and attack two animation:
-attack two: add more special effects (like laser rays or some flares);
-death: i think its too long and may be you can separate the whole mesh and make it detonate with flying away to pieces (i do some mistakes?).

I remember when you showed me the model without skin a long time ago... glad to see it released at last :D

I thought about projectiles to fulfill that role of special effects.

And death is done more dow1 style, where vehicles don't aren't cut to pieces, but they remain on the ground for some time.

haha very nice!! 9/10

i give not 10/10
for there is room for improvement no?
even after the fix of the death animation, improvement can always be made for anything
but nice~!
 
I hate to be a dick here because, I happen to enjoy the look of the model, especially since I can easily appreciate Warhammer 40K as well as Star Wars from it's appearance (I don't know about anyone else, but I believe Warhammer 40K borrowed a bit of the prequel trilogy's hover tank design for this particular model). There isn't a decay animation to this model which makes it seem a little... well... lacking. Otherwise, I do love the model. It looks great.
