Tank thing from gunbound

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

its a tank from gunbound, as it says in the title...
and you are right there is no hole for the front wheels, i made the wheels after making the body, so i but those "metal" shapes to try to hide the fact that the wheels go through the body, lol

Hey looking really nice there Joopson. With the lighting was it just the three incandescent planes with final gather? It looks pretty cool user added image

no, the lights were planes with a maxwell emitter attribute. and maxwell doesnt use final gather, it is a 98% accurate renderer(i say 98 because you can make comletely unrealistic light to, haha)
