Beam cannon remake looks good Very Happy

the design is promising, though the laser could be a bit less round so it resembles more the angular style of the Obelisk of Nod.

The texture on the drivers-cabine looks too blurry. You should sharpen it more. The manual antialiasing on a texture shouldn't go over more than 2 or 3 voxel so there is still some detail visible ingame.

Why green, or yellow? Just make it black / grey / whatever, but not such colors that don't fit (atleast in my opinion).

Ah ok.

I was already wondering where the remap was. Nice vehicle then.

That turned out really great. The chargeanim is very cool too.

Now i think it needs only some small changes on the texture and maybe some more detail on the laser for being spotlight worthy.
e.g.
-some front and rear lights
-a decent remap stripe on the front (maybe along the bumper), so you can see the player color when facing south too

-instead of the fading grey segments on the laser you should make the actual shape like separate segments, which start big and go smaller to the front (e.g. 1-2 voxel smaller on the dark end and 1-2 voxel bigger on the bright end)
-some small wires from the chassis up to the laser would be cool too. maybe even add some small electric sparks around them during the charge anim

i will add some lights and try the fragments but i think it may become messy if i give it to much details ... so we will see Smile

My Grizzly has also many details, but I don't think it's messy (even that my old attempt on RA3 Hammer Tank has many details, but they were almost of the same colour as background colour).

It depends on contrast level.

The laser looks better now. take off the remap on the front it doesn't look good and you don't need it, you can see the remap on the sides clearly. make the lights on the back a 4 voxel square so they show up better. And make the red on the laser the last 2 reds because it's not turned on all the time is it?

Well that's all for now.
