Retro artness
Subject description: :P
I'm.. kinda.. working on a project with Carnotuarus, remaking all the units.
However.. they're smaller, and more.. retro. Full-body remapped, and also.. 2TNK & stuff.
But edited, improved..
So far, we have
--== Allies ==--
2TNK = Grizzly Medium Tank
JEEP* = IFV
HVRTUR = Rocket Turret
TTNKTUR (TS Tick Tank) = Machine Gun Turret
1TNKTUR = Hi-Tech Turret
REPAIR = Repair Arm (ripped off Nod's Repair Bot)
2TNK = Mirage Tank (all-in-one edit, turret & barrel are made from scratch on the tank. Looks kinda nice)
2TNK (?) = Tank Destroyer / Howitzer. (Not exactly sure what they were originally but I believe it was 2TNK. They look very nice, but TNKD needs some work)
APC (TS AAPC) = Battle Fortress
JEEP* (made into an Avenger) = Prism Tank (Carno has a version of a smaller Prism Tank I made from 1TNK yesterday)
2TNK w/ Nod Artillery barrel = Robot Tank (turret looks a hell of a lot different than the Lasher, looks REALLY nice, imo)
FALC = Harrier (recolored and much improved. Looks very cool. Carno used HELI tho)
BEAG = Black Eagle (again, recolor/improvement. Weird pink dot I can't seem to find on the left wing, tho. Carno used a modded HELI, I believe.)
HORNET = Carrier Hornet (same as BEAG/FALC, Carno used a modded HIND. O_o)
--== Yuri ==--
1TNK w/ Nod Artillery barrel = Lasher Light Tank (Carno just used normal 1TNK I believe tho.)
2TNK w/ 3TNK barrel = Gattling Tank (takes a little time to get used to but quite nice lookin once you do)
BGGY = Chaos Drone (weird looking, but I kinda like it)
FTNK = Master Mind (I did Yuri last, there wasn't much to go with)
SONIC = Magnetron (Again.. Yuri = last, wasn't much left to use)
--== Soviet Union ==--
3TNK w/ 2TNK's barrel = Rhino Heavy Tank
TRUK = Flak Track (looks kinda cool, turret's a bit off tho)
TRUCKB (TS) = Demo Truck
ICBM = V3 Launcher (looks REALLY ztyped up, but it works)
MRJ = Tesla Tank (looks very nice. )
4TNK = Apocalypse Uber Tank
--== Civilians / misc ==--
CAR (TS) = Automobile, Mustang, Taxi, Police Car, Black Taxi, & Limo (all were modded to resemble the originals, some were modernized, the Mustang & Limo kinda sucks tho)
JEEP* = Jeep / ATV
PICK (TS) = Pickup Truck, Propaganda Truck, SUV (Black&White), & Ambulance
TRUK = Heavy/Cargo Truck
TRUCKB (TS) = Truck/Demo Truck, heavily modded for the Fire Truck
BADR = TU16 'Badger' Paradrop Plane (HEAVILY modded from the B52 from the Gen-to-vxl pack by Daz)
I think I've got everything.. Of course.. it's 2:50 AM. Pics.. tomorrow.. later today.. sometime soon..

Like I told you over on SS - those infantry are way too small and ugly. If you insist on having a flea army, at least use gamemate's way of resizing. It keeps the quality of the infantry and it's realistic.
Oh, and the Hover MLRS (I think?) flies way too high for it's actual height. QUICK_EDIT

Now you have to enhance the pillbox, because it can hold about 15 soldiers in it(or shrink it, as it a single man fortification with a MG as big as the soldiers you have there. The infantry are too small. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

'gamemate's way'? Do tell.

It's a Robot Tank, (2TNK w/ART2BARL) and it's an art mod only. No .ini editing, so I can play it online with it installed. And yes I think it's too high.

Yes, I know the pillbox is too big, but scale in RA2 is NEVER accurate. I'm just trying to get it a bit closer to reality. Plus, the pillbox is capable of killin g tanks without alot of effort.. just say it's got a huge minigun or somethin.
(yes I'm aware huge minigun sounds like a contridiction - I don't care. ) _________________ "Banned" RP here QUICK_EDIT
Tried asking gamemate yourself? I saw a picture of his resized infantry for Future Crisis. They were 50% smaller I think, but looked good as hell. QUICK_EDIT

Reality? If you leave defensive buildings and many other structures at that size, you have monstrous larger than 60ft tall Prism Towers, and btw: Pillbox is the definition of bad tank defense.
A Grand Cannon would have a barrel several times larger than a soldier, and would be soo large that it could launch a soldier(several more like) from it, implying it has a massive caliber gun, but in-game having a gun little better than a Apocalypse Tank.
All I am saying is the resizes are too extreme. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

Actually "Pillbox" is the name given to any small in-field fortification typified by German defencive strong-points in WW1. The name is from the shape representing pillboxes, and not from ineffectiveness against tanks, pillboxes being in existance before armored warfare developed.
And now that I've defended you, TA, I'll point out your tank is floating, is it meant to? And I think a bit of fixing and/or normal is needed. Besides the floating tank, its a bit hard to make out the others with the full remap, size, and general messiness _________________
