It feels rather tall and short.

Extend the chassis by a little, and then you'll be golden. Very Happy

@Orac's Suggestion I Resized the Z-Axis of the Chassis from 60% to 70%

Should look alright now (at least for me)

A Shame the Tank's Gun still sucks.

Minor Modder's Notes: I added new Lines for the Lasher Tank, Credits to GraionDilach & The_Hunter Razz

Also fits in with how the Lasher Tank is actually a salvaged unit of some sort.

Still too short.

Shrunk the Turret this time. Last try on this. This thing is as big as the Grizzly & Rhino now though. Only thing that makes it feel longer than those two is its bulldozer wheel thingy on the front.

It has way better readability now anyway.

Always thought the Lasher Tank was cool anyway... or any of Yuri's Units to be honest. Laughing

Reordered Lasher Tank Lines:

Selected:
Yuri's Tank Division.
Some new scrap metal?
Where is battle?
Take me to front lines.
Got any spare parts?
Lasher Tank, Ready.

Attack:
Gonna make some scrap metal.
We'll break 'em down.
We can whip 'em.
Prepare for your lashes.
Bow to Yuri.
They will not escape

Move:
Turn up the speed.
Let's do some body work.
Let's make a salvage run.
We will puncture through.
The hunt is on.
Yes master Yuri.

Pre-release Technical and Lasher voiceovers aren't that similar. I wouldn't mix them.

I didn't use all of the Pre-Release Technical. Only some that still sound very close and the Lasher Tank in Colony Wars is really now including that unused information about Lasher's being Scrapped Soviet Tanks.

Actually yes, some of pre release and Lasher Tank voices are exact sounds. Not all however, but few of them do not have difference.

Bump... Replaced the Voxel with a newer one and redesigned gimmick of the Tank.

You probably should've kept both versions up. How else would we be able to tell the difference?

Old one was more detailed than new. Still needs some re-coloring/texturing tho.

I ended up redoing it anyway since the old one had funky Transform Numbers just to get it the right size.

60% X,
50% Y and Z

and most of the details ended up getting shrunken away. (Best one to refer for this is the roller on the front)

The old one doesn't look more detailed to me, it looks messy. New one is nice.

NucleiSplitter · Posted: Wed Jul 19, 2017 1:00 pm Post subject:

The old one was a good choice, but why didn't you just resize and remodel it instead of retexturing another one which lacks details?

But the new one looks okay, It just needs more details

The original one had messed up proportions like a Turret for something like the MO Apocalypse Tank but the chassis was as big as the battle fortress in vanilla.
