    Inspired by the Baneblade recently posted, I set out to recreate the Decimator. This is definitely a work in progress, the sponson guns dont move or shoot yet, and some exterior details still need to be added, as well as an interior. The sponson guns will be independently controlled by two pods inside the tank

    As for whats working now:
    -Main cannon has purposely-limited weld latch elevation, and is controlled by the driver.
    -Interior large enough to stand up and walk in.
    -Some external details
    -Opted for two sponson guns with two guns each instead of four sponsons with one gun each

    That barrel and vibrant colors strike me as cartoony.

    I agree with all the above posts! it looks cartoony! which doesn't have to be a bad thing of course! realism can go to hell!

    But it does need different material and paint job!

    Could you guys suggest something then? Like a good material pack maybe? I always seem to have trouble getting colors right.

    If it tiles itself don't use it. Unfortunately that's why people say don't use PHX and SBEP because all materials tile on it and it makes the contraption unpleasant to look at. Try going with full bland colors first, then experiment with materials with texture, if you can't get texture from the materials you could always add some with props. Hope that helps.

    Pretty awesome. Smooth out the shape and add a couple more details (and a heavy weapons guy tank commander) and it'll be great!
