[Naze]

Neat model. And generators are always a nice addition.

 

[Deolrin]

I love the shape of it. I think this can definitely find use as any sort of futuristic generator, "farm" style building etc.

NEWS: New Empire Walls.

Gates will open by sliding up and down, towers will be upgradeable with a double Gatling, heavy cannon, AA missiles and a Gauss cannon (similar to the one on the tank on the lower right).
All the wall/tower/gate segments use 6x6.

Also...
I made a Challenger 2/M1 Abrams mock-up tank with only in-game textures for a project of a chap of mine.

 

[Naze]

Ahhh I thought I was never gonna see them! (besides occasional teasing where those walls could be seen far back in some screenshots) You managed to pull a great design for these walls. Also the Abrams tank looks solid (and funny), and good use of in-game textures, it does looks authentic with them.

Also some new thing: A mock-up of the M2/M3 Bradley IFV

and something similar for the M270 MLRS

NEWS: 'Defender' ADATS.

Keep in mind, after I made enough of those and the project is going, they will be posted in the model section.

 

[KILLCIDE]

That is going to be one exciting project. When shall we expect a Map Dev thread?!

Probably never because the people I am working with do not use this site.

What difference does that make?

 

[General Frank]

Mybe, but I mainly do models and some terraining.

Sure. And there's plenty of projects like that here, projects that people would want to see presented in a thread for commenting & hype & such. It's good publicity. : )

 

[General Frank]

Fair enough. I'll talk to them after they and I have come back from vacation.

NEWS: Pandaren Firedrum Tank

Light tank that is derived from a Soviet design and build by local materials.

 

[Kyrbi0]

While I was hoping for more wood, that's pretty fantastic.

The green on the main body is bamboo I guess. So that that works, but wait, bamboo is grass. Damnit.

Awesome! Wanted to do nightelf themed machinery a long time now, and that's pretty much the same. Love it.

 

[BlackRangerXIII]

After seeing your pandaren tank i came to a conclusion:
I miss Generals Zero Hour Mods.

Nice Tanks

Go download some on Moddd. I recommend Shockwave, RoTR and Operation Firestorm.

Well the model is finished now. Added all particle emitters, event object and some refined animations.

Also icons preview:

 

[Naze]

Damn this tank is awesome! Love the whole concept behind it. I'm amazed.

 

[General Frank]

This is totally NOT a RA2 Prism tank rip-off....

 

[BlackRangerXIII]

I want it anyway!

When will you release it @General Frank?

 

[Kyrbi0]

Oh MAN my favorite! This is simply the coolest. Love the light-lazer particle SFX. This demands proper "lightning" attack projectile laser.

 

[chobibo]

The sphere on the tank looks like a Tesla coil orb, so yeah, you aren't ripping off the tank... Anyway, that's one hot tank.

That plane on the laser batteries look a bit distracting from that angle though. The recoil on the antennae-like thing is cool too, at first I thought it shouldn't get recoiled like that but then I realized it should

 

[General Frank]

Thanks buddy.
I might get rid of the sphere and make it more of a radar thingy.
The planes are barely visible in-game. The effect may be enhanced by the grey background.

NEWS: A new Pandaren tank - The Jadefist

 

[Naze]

Wow, this pandaren tank set has the modern-yet-medieval aesthetic that I enjoy so much, and is executed in a beautiful, fascinating way. I love how the chassis is inspired by the tsar tank in this one specifically, gives an exotic/foreigner feel to it, while still looking robust. Great work!

 

[infrenus]

I will say I like everything about it but the Night elf lantern roof texture you used around. It fits in but theres some bits like the front that are kind of meh.

 

[General Frank]

Even in the wc3 lore everyone wants to add dem fancy sockets to their epic lootz!

 

[PROXY]

Love it.

 

[General Frank]

small NEWS:

I remade the Liberator to fit the light blue versions of the UAR.
Kind of inspired by the xgm.guru project 'Blue Alert'. Again.

Unit is intended to be upgraded individually akin to the Abrams Tank in 'Act Of Agression'
The first upgrade mainly increases armour and movement speed by adding composite armour plates and a fusion engine.
The second upgrade improves the cannon and adds a sensor module to the vehicle.

 

[General Frank]

NEWS: Republic Of Pan Tanks.
Inspired by the Chinese Tanks from CnC Generals.

Slugger Tank - Basic MBT

Shredder Tank - Anti infantry/AA tank

Smolderer Tank - flame tank

Striker Howitzer - Long range artillery

 

[Kyrbi0]

Long time no see; nice!

 

[Naze]

O:

Awesome! I definitely have use for some of these new ones, so I'm expecting their release. They're great.

 

[infrenus]

They are pretty boxy and cute. Not so much my taste, but they can be quite useful.

 

[General Frank]

Some icons.
Set is not complete though.

NEWS: A small comparison of shapes and colour of the different tanks I was/am making.

 

[Mechanical Man]

the orange one is definitely chibiest of them all

Sure, that's the Japanese inspired one. So kawaii too.

 

[Naze]

Love the different styles and shapes! Looking forward for more of the Japanese inspired ones and the one on the top left.

News: Izumi Buzzsaw Killer Robot.

Some people might have seen in on Discord already, but I wanted to revive my thread again anyway.
It is supposed to be a light-armoured melee model with a buzzsaw blade thing, flame throwers and rocket pods.

 

[Kyrbi0]

oh heck yeah

 

[Deolrin]

Awesome and creative.

 

[General Frank]

Awesome and creative.

Thank you, gentlemen.

 

[MasterHaosis]

Good to see you modelling! Paradise for eyes!

 

[Mechanical Man]

Didn't harkonnen have something like that in the game Emperor battle for Dune?

Yes they did.

 

[SerenityInFire]

Great work, as usual, General. The buzz saw vehicle really reminds me of the Cobra Buzz Boar from GiJoe, but cooler.
