Description
Another model we are looking forward for the Steam release. Almost ready as well. Only needs animations.
Credits to DMz & Beefy.
Omg dat hd look is sexy af
Initially I didn't pay attention to it's thumbnail but now after I see the whole thing up close I can't help but note the amount on polygons. It easily has more polygons than the average tank. Weren't you guy trying to limit the polycount as much you can?
I have to disagree with you. Look at the rounded sections, they are very well textured but you can see the edges. This looks excellently made and textured.

That was a great observation, I couldn't have expected less from a veteran CoH modder and 3D/2D artist :D.
The model so far is ~2100 triangles(+~600 wreck), but it is certainly a complex piece of artillery. Although DMz can give you more information than I about it.
Good textures make wonders on low poly models, just as you said. Just to put it as reference, our T-60 is under 5000 triangles with wreck.
"our T-60 is under 5000 triangles with wreck. "
Wow, now 2000p doesn't sound like too much for the field gun =)
Less tri's than that now, still looks the same (around 1940).
In case anyone is wondering, all the textures are a 512x512 minus the wreck which is a 256x256
FYI I will try to do the correct animations for the elevation flap at the front and have it eject like a shotgun but we will see
