so yea im new here, was browsing the front page when i noticed this comp a couple of days back and decided to give it a go.

so after a bit of idea conceptualizing i came up with this

i did afew practice runs (never done speed modeling before.)

here's what I've done so far on my actual attempt so far i spend 3 hours and 34mins on it so don't really have much time left for the modeling side

Welcome to the forums!

Good job, maybe you can use the remaining time to add more details on the legs, they lack detail compared to the rest of the model.

Are you going to texture it?

yea im going to texture it and possibly rig it later (for practice) i was thinking they need more detail still need to decide what and where

These are great tuts for mechanical riging, the best i've seen. They helped me a lot.

well there goes the last of my time, fixed a few issues around the place that i could find
also put more detail into the legs.

cool, reminds me of metal gear rex.

yea i literally just finished metal gear solid 4 just before starting this, +rex looks awesome for a biped tank so did have some influence from him for the design

hey man really liking your design! bit like mechwarrior. my only concern is his legs though, cause at the moment it looks like as soon as he shoots a gun hes gona fall straight back on his arse. maybe you could move his feet a bit further backwards or summin?
