It's more painful than I thought.
At the same time, I learned a lot from General Frank's tank model

That has indeed some General Frank vibes !
But I has some design concerns :
☼ The tracks are hardly visible, why animating them in the first place ?
☼ The way the tank fire would benefit from more juice. I would see the gun fire first, then the gun knock back, then slamming on the turret, which bends a bit, then the whole tank knocking back. Here you do everything at once which gives a robotic feel.
☼ When walking the tank could jiggle a bit randomly to simulate rolling on rough terrain
☼ The overall shape is very square and flat ; which makes it a bit hard to distinguish from which direction it is facing. The textures doesn't help much by blending the 3D details.
I don't mind something deviating from the inspiration, and the tank is enough as it is. But I'm curious on how it could be improved !

It's a nice model but how did you do the track? I've downlaoded to try to understand, but when checking the keyframes it show the wheels moving but not the track, in walk, 2 and 3 animation the track moves smoothly but not the wheels.. SO confused 
care to explain hos you did this nice thing?
