The angel of the barrel is a bit wrong, but overall very nice Wink

Looks decent but the wheels are too detailed, they look funny, like they have hubcaps.

The barrel is correct, the lighter blue area is tapered, that's why the upper angles don't match, look at the north-east facing one, looks fine.

No it doesn't look right, it looks like somebody
has been bending it too much in the end!

Hassan is correct, the barrel's angle changes half way through. Nice voxel overall though. Good work.

amazing voxel his detail really sharp and clear specialize tank tread and no ugly black dot on any place of it but like everyone mention his barrel angle didn't look as it should be once you fix it this voxel will be perfect.

Agreed

i agree with hassan, barrel's angle is bent oddly. anyway, holymaster you know zenoniations personally right? i really wanted to release this voxel though i feel like i need to have his permission first..

i was actually trying to imitate this:

Why not? It's your voxel. Release it if you like.

That looks terribly badass for a second.

You've got talent there.

Tho confirm my eyes - that's not the Westwood VPL I see, is it?

nope. ra2 normals. autonormals, the third one on the vxlseiii. i was actually amazed how it looked like just the original voxel.

Oh, now I see. You picked the most reliable base colors from the pal without looking at the VPL itself. Damn, that's amazing.

Most people don't. I'm just too much of a technician.

VPL is the voxel palette lighting file.
It basically tells the game for each normal and facing, which color it should use. This way making a voxel darker/brighter according to the facing the unit is standing.

The default vpl however has some terrible set colors, which makes some voxel turn into completely crazy colors when they rotate ingame.
