Hey man,

Very nice work so far, I'm anticipating further updates. I was absolutely obsessed with WH and WH40K as a teenager (not so many years ago). I dropped so much money into that hobby. I still love the art and concepts.

Go nuts on this one man! Make us 40kers proud!

-Kol.

I remember they were making a 40K movie for awhile, it looked really promising, I wonder what's happened to it.

you definitly need more bevels on corners and edges.

Hollis J Wood

well did more detail of the top of it but am not happy with the two hatches , will probably make then thicker later, but here is a nupdate none the less.
I will be beveling it more later as I get further along and can see how it will turn out .

most of her family lives in Neidlingen near Stuttgart and we chat with them all the time, the only one I can eally under stand though is her Grandmother who is from berlin and speaks High German all the others tend to speak with a Schwabish accent, so it is hard to under stand them when thay get going.

just a small update I added the side stacks and grills, and am working on the side mounted weapons, but cant decide between lascannons or heavy bolter.
and as soon as I can get the link to my image host working again I will post the pic.

wo!

very clean model that is very good.
U might want to add some more details on the main armour... looks a bit flat

or are u going to make great textures?
in any case, keep up the good work, i love Warhammer (see my web page to check how i love it!)

nicht schlecht, der detailgrad entwickelt sich prächtig (speziell die Kette) und mit einer extrem guten Textur, vielen Bumps, und dem richtigen Licht kannst du es wie ein reales Modell aussehen lassen.

Viel Glück ;)

the skylight in max is fun. what i usally do to make it a bit better is had another light, drop its multiplier down a bit and slap on shadows. makes it a bit tastier anyways!
