M1114 Uparmored

Recommended Posts

Hi, Here is a lil pic of the M1114 that im working on. Its pretty plan jane. theres not really alot to model Since the BIS HMMWV model is being used as the base. Just need to move some stuff around. Just wanted to get some feedback on it. Maybe some ideas etc.

Make it a bit lower, the whole hummer seems to be lower to ground because of all the extra weight.

Looking nice! maybe its an idea to add a hidden model on the backside.. when activated it shows a sign that says to stay back.

Super sweet! That blows away my mod's uparmored IDF humvee that we just finished up. So far your completed sections look identical to the heavily uparmored humvees in Iraq. I'm especially impressed with the gunshields. Keep up the awesome work!!!

Thats awesome, about time someone made some decent uparmoured kit. As for ideas maybe you could add, cones at the back or signs e.g STAY AWAY (in Arabic & English). Maybe a IED decetor at the front.

And I agree with MehMan , make it lower.

Smoke launchers would also be an idea as seen on the photo above smile_o.gif

Made a bumper.. Dont laugh.... huh.gif Lowering sounds like a good idea since it has so much weight. The sign for the back sounds good too. Smoke tube's that work sounds even better. Theres so many virants hard to chose which one.

Thats really awesome, well done.

Perhaps you could add a roll of 'razor' wire to the front or back, for effect too.

Nice. That bumper is actually very close to the real thing.

I have not seen smoke launchers on reg vehicles, more on MP/INF gun trucks.

I do like the turret. Nice use of pope glass biggrin_o.gif Is it possible to add more headlights in ArmA? Most of the vehicles i see have multiple lights mounted on nice bumpers like the one you made smile_o.gif

WTF o_O

Finally! God sent down to earth uparmored hummer! notworthy.gifnotworthy.gifnotworthy.gif

And seriously,

Incredible...

And for sugestions,

Maybe bullet proof glasses? BIS never made ones. ^^

Yeah I agree that it should be lower, because of weight.

For sure you must paint wheels.

How about little bumper on back to make it looks much lower?

And a emergency wheel on back?

Sweet! Thanks! I've always wanted something like this biggrin_o.gif

And you wanted ideas, how about this:

You put some desert camo net over the gunner position. It provides shade and it makes it harder for snipers to kill the gunner.

Like in these pictures:

It would be good if you made two versions, one with the net and one without the net.

Also, are you making versions with different weapons (MK19, M240 etc) or are you just going to have the M2 browning?

Yeah good work man! Finally somebody makes an uparmoured humvee!

The turret is very nice!

Please make the modern electronical gadgets that are included on the modern versions of the uparmoured humvees.

This vehicle with armour is sooo missing in many many missions.

I agree. Ive just noticed one thing tho. I think you need to get rid of the open gunners hatch that was on the stock arma hummer.

No doubt! I hope SLX compatibility is a priority. I'm very excited to see up-armored versions on the horizon, I'd be quite sad if I had to choose one or the other.

Thanks for addressing this huge void. It's been a long time coming for these. thumbs-up.gifbiggrin_o.gif

Now all we need is HMMWV's with the Crows mounted on top. shouldnt be to difficult the strykers already have them.

Looking great by the way, dont know why BIS didnt put these in game.

strykers don't have CROWS - they have Protector.

I have a CROWS unit modeled. If you're interested NZX
