Hey guys im actually going to try this game art comp ... im fairly new to this forum but not so new to 3d . but i am limited by time .
but lets see maybe ill actually get in an entry but first id like to know if my design has any apeal .

heres the concept :

http://www.the3dstudio.com/forum/files/2414/hmt.jpg

the hummer tank was born by fusing together an old pickup truck a military humvee and tank tracks from an old m1a1 .
it was born from the mind of a talented scavenger in a time where resources were short and improvisation was the key to survival.

the concept looks very clean but thats just to give u an idea of its shape but in the final its going to have a lot of weld spots and rust and stuff ill see if i can update the concept later ...but u get the idea basically its 3 vehicles fused together and metal and scrap welded heree and there to serve as armor ..the windows were broken out and shutters were put in ...armored ones ... the vehicle has 2 weapons a mg at the back inside and a howitzer on top .

i felt bored and decided to start on the model rather than update that concept but if u guys need a beter idea to help me out ill finish it up .
anyhow there was enough in the concept to get me started heres the first render .

the width is not correct but its just wip rite now .
852 triangles so far.

Vehicles are definitely tricky, especially if they have lots of wheels and you have a low poly count to work with. Looking forward to seeing how you do the tracks as they could eat up the triangles. Looks like a nice solid design so far :)
