Y'know.. it's kinda odd (but no offense is intended) but since the HALO mod shut up shop, this ones become REAL popular..

Coincidence? I don't care.. all I know is..

I got a bad feeling about this drop

Good work Neph! I'm still looking forward to this..

It's probably since I love the UD-4L and skinning (no other projects yet) and just the plain fact that I have no life smile_o.gif And pure dedication to getting it done. I've invested ALOT of time into this, and want to complete it.

Speaking of that, I've been pondering a light tank design with a 25mm styled like the Warthog, only for the USCM stuff, but since we're sticking with CMTM stuff..  then again I haven't actually brought it up to neph (we got too much stuff going on as it is).

Wasn't there some sort of light tank in the technical manual anyway? I vaguely remember seeing it..

M22 Jackson and M40 Ridgeway were mentioned only. This is just a wish out of my head that's all.

I think he means the M579 daisycutter. Basicly the APC, but with a turret-mounted quad 20mm gatling-gun on the roof instead of the normal turret. And (SAM)missiles instead of the turret on the front of the vehicle.

It's basicly a SHORAD unit, but also used as a ground-support vehicle to chop infantry (hehehe *evil laugh*).

Hehe, guess you're not going to like this post then smile_o.gif

More detail work:

ds152.jpg

ds153.jpg

The first one is the people who are assisting me indirectly with this project, while the second one is sorta dedicated to my gunner in Iraq.

ds154.jpg

This one is to show the rough max speed of the dropship in horizontal flight.

And detail work:

Detail work continued:

ds156.jpg

This one shows some closeup on the airbrake texture. I'm talking with someone to see if I can't get inside textures. If not I'll have to try and bash together something.

ds157.jpg

Another point of these is that I also applied a generic pattern to get rid of the "texture stretching" areas, to give the aircraft a better overall look.

Burn work on my airbrakes. This will go on the other ones too, it's just the progression I have to deal with.

Thanks smile_o.gif

Actually I don't work all day on this, as I have other stuff going on too..

But I agree in a way, I'd like myself to see the other stuff being worked on, but that's on neph really..

Did some ad hoc work on the bay.  I used of all things the front cover of the CMTM as the basis for them, and a small dedication to some buddies I knew:

ds159.jpg

I really could use some help on this stuff, [-=RAW=-] Schakal you still around? I can send you the PSDs for you to mess with..

Also finally added more detail to the Gunship:

Thanks, and I'm sure those dedicated do so as well smile_o.gif

Did some touchups on the Gunship:

ds161.jpg

ds162.jpg

ds163.jpg

As well as intake touchups on the Standard (my designation for the movie one) and mine:

ds164.jpg

ds165.jpg

And neph, it doesn't look like it from the shots, but I fixed the errors. I wish o2 had the capacity to show the animations, this would be alot easier.......

Did some cargo area detailing, starting off with the ramp hinge mechanisms:

ds166.jpg

Ramp sides.  I had intended to make a seperate version for each color scheme, but felt that it's alot better to just go for one standard color for all.  Down the line I may take the time to do individual ones, but in a sense I don't feel it's necessary:

ds167.jpg

And added "motor" assemblies for the ramp jacks.  Pretty much as you've seen, there was nothing there in the first place:

ds168.jpg

Slightly faint, but some weathering even on the "01":

M20 Re-Entry Vehicle

I guess you can just use a MIRV photo/texture (if they're around) for this one.. Gonna need some fancy scriptin though.
