anarchianbedlam: over 1000 particles on death. the texture animations on the treads are completely fucked up. You have a lot of waste space in your texture, and wasted space is wasting KB. you could probably rearrange it and resize it to 512/256 if you wanted to preserve that.... err... "quality". And those are just the TECHNICAL flaws. I cant even begin to describe how malformed this abomination is.

General Frank:
The mesh is still very deformed and does not look like a Halo franchise scorpion tank.
The texture stretches in various places. The animated textures on the threads are just wrong.
The animation are very stiff and unnatural for a tank.
The particle effects look very unpolished and basic.
 
Testing now

3(1/2)/5 Awesome model, but it has some things that could be improved,

the flare from firing could be a bit more impressive, you kinda have to squint to see this one, the joint from the cannon to the tank is probably a bit too big and the treads from the tank need to be bigger (they almost meet up in the middle if I remember correctly)

also the display thing... (don't remember what its called but it is usualy a bust of the character when selected) goes through the tanks animation cycle including it exploding (which is a bit destracting)

aside from those things, cool model
 
Maybe they've updated it since all these bad reviews, but it seems fine to me. The only thing I don't like is the death animation because its too quick and unrealistic. The scorpion would have to be hit with a nuke to fly apart like that. You should make it more like anarch's prowler where the pieces just sort of fall apart.
 
I've played all tha Halo games and i think this looks very nice :D!
Though those two squares on the front... i dont think they look good, i dont think they fit, and i dont remember them on the tanks :o should just be a plain area there i think... anyways fix tha animation stuff everybody's talking about and this is a real nice tank.
 
And before you ask not to criticize it, maybe you should check out the animations.
I never said the model was perfect, I said that people need to keep in mind this is not a Halo: Reach scorpion tank, because I have seen comments about how it needs to look a certain way, when, previously, scorpion tanks did not look the way they asked.
And I never said to not criticize the model, I said to consider when it was made before they criticize it.
 
@People who complained without constructive criticism: Please supply constructive criticsm.

@darkdeathknight: Please suggest how the anims should be improved (the Scorpions in the Halo games were pretty stationary too when driven).

@TL1 - Inferno: Yep, it looks closest to Halo 1, though I purposely skinned it green like in Halo 3.

@tleno: Glad you have faith in me, padawan :P

@Raven0: Awww, I liked the death anim :P
