MikeyD Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 I've got another one for you. Russian KV-2 heavy assault tank. Find it here: http://www.cmmods.com/ I did this one for myself, not being satisfied with the accuracy of the KV-2 in the game. It's got as much new detail as I could add. Proper turret handrails, pistol port, vision slit. A more accurate hull front. I even added cast shadows and good-old Russian dirt and rust. AND, to make it look meaner, I also added eight non-penetrating turret shell strikes (well, sixteen if you count both sides ). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juju Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 Yes indeedy! Turned from 'must-have' to 'got-it' in a second! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YECoyote Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 Great Work, Mike!!! I have 1 question. Is it possible to rework the .bmp the make the wheels 3D-ish? That is one of the major problems I find with CMBB/BO models. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 21, 2003 Author Share Posted January 21, 2003 My KV-2 wheels are the standard CMBB art with some work done to it to make it look 'more 3-D'. Just this morning walking out the door for work I noticed my reference photos of the KV-2 actually had completely different wheel types! The vehicle currently sports the late model cast wheels where my references had the lighter stamped(?) type. If I ever get around to attempting new wheels those'll be the type I shoot for... eventually ...maybe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YECoyote Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 It's really too bad the stock BMPs implied that you're looking at it straight on from the side, thus no 3D art (or very little). I Can't wait for the new engine to see more realistic models. P.S. just tried your model in a game, I love the scratch marks on the turret, very nice touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Lucke Posted January 22, 2003 Share Posted January 22, 2003 Excellent work (as usual), but one question: What's the little "Icon" file do/for? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 22, 2003 Author Share Posted January 22, 2003 Hi Ihat little 'Icon' file in the zipped ain't my fault! I work on the mac and zip the file using Stuffit's DropZip freeware. That darned little 'icon' file always shows up when I unzip it again. Don't know what it does. Don't know how to stop it from appearing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
