If you've ever played Metal Gear Solid, you know what this dude is. But if you havent, Metal Gear Rex is a 3 story nuclear equipped bipedal tank capable of launching an IRBM range nuke via rail gun anywhere in the world. I'm looking to improve, so contructive criticism is appreciated very much.





In case you haven't already noticed, I have yet to texture it cool.gif

OMG, that's beautiful. I love MGS.
But the legs don't look right. I think that's in it's 'off' position, but still I think the third leg is should be more out back.

EDIT: The legs looks a bit weird. confused.gif

Wow, nice start dude!

If your looking for ideas, i suggest you peak around for the concept art for Rex that Hideo released some time ago. It had different views of the model in 3D and 2D views. They would help you a lot.

Thanks for the great comments, but what really about the legs look weird? I fixed the "heels" so they go out more towards the back and they look more stable, but I don't see much else wrong with the legs. And Hyper, I couldn't find those concepts, any idea where they may be?

Ohh, searching through my pictures I found this:

Following that, yours looks pretty good, maybe I was wrong about the legs.

Right, thanks for the help guys, I used that concept art to add some detail, like that plating on the "knees" and those little cartridge... Thingys (I always see those on tanks, what are they?) on the legs. The model still looks lacking in a lot of areas, but I don't really know what to add or change.
