15 points for mesh (verticies and faces)
10 points for animations (or how well Blizzard animations have been used)
10 points for skin (or how well Blizzard skins have been used)
5 points for mechanics (how well does this model work ingame)
5 points for effects (appropriate use of particles, particle saturation, etc.)
5 points for creativity

I think i can live without the 5 points, i'll get atleast one, atleast, =)

Ok, I found out that my tank has more than 2000polies. I forgot to convert it from editable poly to editable mesh...so now it's 3700...SO! I have decided to remove the legs and add wheels. It's 2500 now.

Here is the UVW so far.

EDIT: K the whole turret is done.

EDitorz: I've made a completly new concept, now going to make a "nightelf" tank.

Neat work on wheels there.
So, I've redone my concept of the Ursa Major Super-heavy Tank.

Here's the base mesh of the chassis.

Like Red Shift's album shows:
A colonel uses custom textuers...
A General uses INGAME TEXTURES!

(and makes it look awesome.)
So far 3 best i have seen are Kita, Bob & Frank. Like i like to say, lets see who wins. We may never know.
 
Wow, this thing looks awesome. I'll presume you wont use those stupid steam tank animations, right? That death animation would really ruin the model.

I will use only very small parts of the original Steam tank animation set, so yeah I will redo the death animation.
 
:/ my tank is coming along very slowly.... as usual.... and on top of that im working on paladon's tank at the same time.... expect to see a wip of my tank within a day or two

and GF, that flare on the cannons is awesome

Yeah, thank you. Actually it was you who made me do this thank. I wanted to do some researches on Halo Wikia and discovered this Grizzly tank. It has almost the same muzzle flash thingies.

Wait, are those blue parts are team colours?

Yes.

Mr. Bob, that cockpit looks weird on the tank, you know, thanks should look very strong and that cockpit looks vulnearable... so maybe its some kind like artilery/support tank, right? Oh, and is it Cyberpunk styled?

Agree with BlargHonk, it does look like a Mammoth (Or RA2 Apocalypse tank). Looks like most of tanks loving RTS fans have Mammoth tank fetish.
 
ehm, another question:

can the tank carry some blade based weapons (like the ballista) or does it need to fight with laser, cannon etc... ?

"And please keep in mind that the point of a tank is to be used in battle, so your submission MUST have a weapon of some sort, be it a catapult, a cannon, a mortar, a machine gun, Gatling gun, laser, missile launcher, grenade launcher, or melee weapon"

PLEASE
PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
read the rules.
