Ok, what do you suggest we do to make the skin better?

Here's a reference pic: (Most M1A1 radars and equipment vary between tanks)

well, instead of being all one color try and make it dirty(mud) to help break it up and maybe use darker colors in areas of shade(i.e under the turet).

Ok, thanks. I'll add some mud stains and variation. I'll also add scratches and worn spots. I'll get to work when I get back from Europe.........

That honestly looks like pure ass...

You notice the difference between the Abrams and that model of yours?

The Abrams has detail. Your model does not.

Give it detail. Give it a better model. Do that tank some justice. I love the Abrams, but not that model...

Here's a different picture of the tank. Try skining it this way. Using the desert camo skin like you are just makes it look bland and ugly.

Please Ack, I really don't mind you viocing your opinion, but please don't insult it. Give us some helpful tips. You can say it looks bad, but please not in such an insulting way. Do you think the model needs work? Or just the skin? Or both? If so, what type of details can we add?

Ack doesn’t know how to help anyone; it's too above his intellect. He’s got to cut people down so he will feel good about his nasty deeds. How can he be proud of himself when no one else is? Here’s why Ack does it. Read carefully.

Narcissists use everyone around them to keep themselves inflated.
Often they find flaws in others and criticize them fiercely,
for this further distinguishes them from those who are defective.
Because of their underlying need for voice and the resultant bluster,
Narcissists often work their way to the center of their "circle,"
or the top of their organization. Indeed, they may be the mentor or guru for others.
The second they are snubbed, however, they rage at their "enemy."
Demands to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements.
Requires excessive admiration, adulation, attention and affirmation - or,
failing that, wishes to be feared and to be notorious.

Summarized from:
American Psychiatric Association. (1994).

Ack enters into a room, most people leave; Ack follows them around insulting them, wondering why no one likes him. “Why did they leave”? Hmmm wow. Boo hoohoo.
Woo is me.

I just told you. It has no detail. Isn't it obvious that an entirely tan, blocky looking model, has no detail in it whatsoever?

Ok, I'm gonna totally redo the skin and revamp the model. I'll get a start now, and finish up when I get back from Europe.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to insult you.
Fiest of all, yes the tan color is a desert Camouflage. Camouflage isn't always the funky patterns that you see on combats and other military vehicles/personel. Camouflage is simple the color that the military uses to make something appear invisible.
Secondly, I just gave that pic because I thought you could use it to give more "life" to the way the tank looks, and still have it resemble the real thing. At least skin-wise.

I see. Good point, I stand corrected.

You were right, but you were mostly talking about the model. Most of the criticism seems to be directed towards my shitty skin.

You are NOT turning this into a flame war. Keep it on topic or stay the hell out of this thread. You have ruined enough threads with your flames.

That tank needs some creativity. That model reminds me of the post "low res renegade" on the general forum.

as i said in a previous thread.

your model may be nice under that less than perfect skin.

your skin will make or break.

here are some hints. add panels, hinges, handles, decals (like warning), etc.. to the skin in the appropriate places. check out the med tank skin in renegade, it has all kinds of detail that the actual model doesn't even have, like the entire back engine access area is skin only.

play with these ideas, change your ambient color from bright white to a lower toned down light grey (that will help with that uber brightness that it is giving off).

some suggestions, hope you take them Wink

just another suggestion, after checking out that pic...

you might want to match the camo of your troops and vehicles, they do in real life.

from that pic i see a desert camo tank, and a jungle camo infantry.

just another suggestion that will help make your mod stand out from the rest.

Id suggest actually using a blueprint of the tank from http://www.suurland.com You can actually get the shape size and dimesions right so ACK doesnt complain.
