Penetrator model replacement

looks pretty awesome

Wow that is completely amazing LordMuffe! Its great to see your talent going to work on a Zero-K model.

Aesthetically, its gorgeous (though of course, so much of a model is in the texture). Practically, as antelope said, the penetrator currently has a very high turret so that it can shoot over friendly units. Also, if the model is too long, it may clip into other units the way that ships do, or take up a disproportionate footprint size, though it shouldnt be too bad with its current dimensions. One solution to the turret height issue is just to make the unit float higher, if you dont want to change the design.

The Penetrator model we have already is fairly decent though. While its texture is lackluster, the geometry is fairly solid. So one solution is just to adapt this as the Mace (Mumbo, the laser riot hover), which would mean you wouldnt have to raise the turret (though you may need to shorten the barrel length slightly).

Either way, if you make a really gorgeous model, we will include it one way or another.

Mr.D models are among the lowest priority to replace, since they are attractive, role-fitting and have good distance visibility and differentiation.

Hovercraft are mostly cut-and-paste jobs and are among the higher-priority-to-replace units (though well below many ships and mechs).

Pilager is one of the best model. Just look how cool it shots.

Maces gun also needs to be higher, but that is something for another model.

But I don't know why you have made the bottom so detailed - you can see the mesh details below the hover-box only from one of your presented angles...

I would close the bottom boxes and save very much poligons there.
If you make the gun a bit shorter and the both boxes at the front too, you don't need this details anyway.

But beside this - really good job.
If see the texture at 2011-12-24_00:00am and I'm even more happy :D

I like current hover but this looks better. Also it is just about right size since it shoots big lazor ;)

Lookin prety sweet

I can't wait to see this in game. Easily one of the best looking units I've ever seen on ZK. The only one that comes close is the Scorpion model.

Your texture quality isnt so bad Muffe. At the very least, this will be a nightmare to uvmap for me. If you want to do a texture, i can edit it to match anything else fairly easily.

The height on the new model looks good and more than sufficient enough.

that looks like skorpion tank in halo

NICE!
finally, I really dislike pene model as is. replacement looks epic
