That one looks sleek, Spud. So did you decide on a paintjob?

not yet...

I've got 4 options as I see it now...

follow an x-wing paint scheme.
or
the original classic viper scheme
or
the reimagined viper scheme
or
come up with a completely new one.

That looks great to me.
But whats with the belt fed chain gun?
Guess you could say its a throwback slug thrower type weapon.
Nice work.

That tank turned out great, Spud. I like the belt fed guns and that aat turret looks alot better with some paint on it. Looks like a front pager to me.

thanks clint!

DRS, I figure that sometimes, a weopon that throws good ol slugs is needed to take down enemies the old fashioned way.

Besides, a chain gun laser just doesn't make any sense to me...  I guess it makes sense that a laser emitting barrel would over heat and a repeating barrel "gatlin" gun would give each barrel time to cool... BUT... with all the other technology in the star wars universe I think that it'd be obsolete.

And... theres always the chance that some sheilds would be impervious to blaster fire but allow sollid rounds to penetrate...  at least, that's my thoughts.

Oh... and I forgot to mention that the little web thing on the back of the tank is supposed to act like a heat disipator, since all the added weopons would add more heat to the vehicles power supply...

HOLY SHIT

pardon my Basic but I can't find more appropriate wording



Devin, that's incredible.  I mean like WHOA-inducing coolness.  It doesn't look at all like the same vehicle anymore, it's like 24 kinds of cooler!!
