Hi there !

Have you seen the 4 episodes of Ghost in the Shell - Stand Alone Complex ? There a nice tank in episode 2.

I needed a kind of canvas to modelize a final version because my original sources weren't very clear (no ortho views of the tank). Here is it. There's some work to do now.

C&C are welcome. :)

I haven't seen the series yet, but that model is fantastic.

Looking forward to seeing some updates on this.

Thanks. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of reactions. ;) Of course, it's a little homework, but I thought there were more GitS addicts around here. In fact, I have switched to other things.

Anyway, the TV serie is actually boradcasted in Japan and you'll certainly find some of the first four episodes on the internet...

By the way, the DarkHorse comics are available for purchase (the drawings look amazing, I haven't bought 'em yet).

Concerning the updates, I'll try to put some time on it soon.

Thx again.

I like how your model has come along, but I would change the composition of the image. Maybe you could select a camera closer to the floor to imply its huge size and weight.

Give it a bit more mass.
Right now it looks very well made, but it lacks weight.
Here is a site with pictures of a real M1 tanks.

the huge spider tank in the movie looked better than this design i think.

Hey, it looks great so far...would love to see some of your ideas for the texture...

I pushed a bit the mesh, if I keep the idea that it's only a dummy for another modelisation. But it's still a bunch of primitives and streched boxes and Cylinders. ;)

Yeah, the textures, look at episode 2, it's only toon shaded with light yellow and dark (sunset colors) with 2 other nuances for the other parts.

I was considering a desert camo (not because of the recent news, I swear), to keep the mesh as clean and unified as possible.
