More good stuff. I think that quad is coming along excellently! Though the loading ramp at the rear or in the front is a non-issue, the rest of it looks great with that detailing.

The turret does look a little off. I think it's a good position for it, with a fair field of fire over the hull, but it doesn't quite fit the rest of the aesthetic at this time. Maybe keeping it forward like that but dropping it a bit down into the hull again would work. It doesn't need a complete 360 degree field of fire to be acceptable does it?

Did a lot of detailing, flipped the body around so the loading ramp is in the back, moved turret to front to allow for greater fire arc, lowered profile, etc.

Nice looking AFV !!!! 8)

That thing looks slick, I'm with Glyn though on the turret. Just don't like it's look/where it is.

Good call guys - I moved the turret down and into the hull, right next to the driver. I think it looks great there - thoughts?

I also moved the guns back into the turret so they can actually reload the things from inside the tank - lol. I like the snub-nosed look.

I'd move the headlights down - or at least have a second pair of lamps lower down in the hull.

Hmm somehow i don't like it. Particulary the side view looks strange to me.

What about covering the tracks up a little more and moving the headlights down on to them? Will all that track exposed it's just waiting to be thrown.

The turret looks great there.

The whole thing kind of reminds me of the Stealth Tank from the original C&C.

Looks great to me. Only thing i would say is the exactly mirrored track units looks a little strange. Perhaps if you mirrored the back units so they run the same way as the front ones ? Or just adjusted the angle of the rear return tracks - they just seem to over hang the back of the hull a lot.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Detailing continues - shown here with and without possible optional dozer blade:

I really like this design as is and would take a bunch of them of your hands right now. :)

I see them as proxies for an armoured supermen APC, as many of the details of hull panelling and doors/ramp fit with that asthetic nicely. Now you need to do a multiple rocket pod launcher and support heavy turret version and maybe a forward hull mounted short barrelled cannon to round this out.
