OWA: Your weapon names for the MP5K and MP5-N are incorrect. See this wikipedia article;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler_&...5#Variants_list

The MP5K has no - in it, while the MP5-N has the - after the 5, not before. They were correct in the version I originally sent you.

The IFV looks Incredible, can't wait to take it out for a spin
Keep Up The Good Work.

Alrighty, I'll fix that.

Blog great, so is IFV

And magicarp is even more win!

that machine gun turret IFV is

+1.

I agree that having a dome turret for every weapon just wouldn't work.

Awesome, that turret looks possitivily great.

Hahah, it really does look like a HB turret, maybe you should model the actual barrel off something not the same calibre as a tank cannon? Heh.

as many people said, the IFV's MG turret looks great, but from that screenshot the IFV's MG barrel is a little too short, try extending it if you can. oh and i believe the base character models had Mesh Smooth applied, so there were lines.but if it wasn't applied, where did the lines come from? btw, the lines on the blue base character models made them look like spiderman's costume lol

Just remember how much damage Gun IFV's did to vehicles and buildings in RA2.

The mesh smooth modifier does not make lines magically appear on the model. What the Mesh smooth modifier does do, is add a buttload more polygons to make everything look smoother.

I used a custom material to display the polygon structure and mesh flow. What you see in the render is what I have modelled by hand without the use of any modifiers (other than symmetry).
