   Mmm... Nothing like a variable tank-mecha to start off the week.

Mark, this rules! You totally nailed the concept. I seriously hope you explore it even further and perhaps at a larger scale.


I wasn’t planning on it, until now... :) But now you got me thinking. Seriously though, coming from you this is serious praise. Thanks!

   Some minor suggestions: - The tan-blue colour scheme is awesome, and I have used it plenty of times myself, however, it is more of a ‘parade’ colour scheme than a hardcore military one. I dunno, maybe I have just become too biased in favour of bland grey-based colour schemes over the years. Perhaps if you used a sand-blue or a dark-blue (or any darker highlight for that matter) it would look more ‘sober’. - I agree with Eric, the threads do look exposed and vulnerable to enemy fire. I think some thin covers would make the whole thing look even more ‘mecha-ish’ (?). However, I do understand you were inspired by that concept art and that at this scale such armour would be too bulky. But if you do take another, larger stab at this design, I think some kind of tread guards would be an apt addition.

Cool, Thanks. I agree with you on the blues. I’m thinking there’s some room here to play. Like you say, something to goof with on the next one.

  
Anyways, you made my day man. Keep up the awesome work!

Glad to help. Thanks man
