Jupp, your right

Now then, I have stepped away from the camo look on this one. I wanted a more clean look on this new texture. I have spent all day trying to get something that looks alright. I think I'm getting there now

Wow!

Now all you need is a realistic background and I would believe you if you said that was a photo!

Beautiful, absolutely amazing. I just wish I had one for myself...

I'd say!

It looks amazing!

Just noticed the shovel too... nice detail! I *love* how everything you build seems to have such purpose.

Thanks all

This is it I think. I had to do some remapping because of the new texture. The old greenish camo style was a bit more forgiving than this one. I noticed some stretching here and there. Think I have ironed them out now.

Very, very nice as usual!

Are you going to texture the "gryphon" emblym? It looks to me as if it should be textured but thats up to you.

I added some specularity to get some life to the surface. Its hard to get it the way I want it

:shock: Ok, first off are you dam sure that you did not just take a picture of some model tank cause I am seriously thinking that this does not just exist solely in virtual reality... ok Im done disbelieving all that I can say is "Shiny, so very shiny"

Can you post a link on how to texture so well? Because I safely say that this is how we all want to do it.

(btw my heart skipped a beat when I saw this, it is fracking amazing)

No, this is not from real life. The tank design is all from my head. Hope thats ok for you

And do you mean how I make the textures or how I uv-mapp the model?
