Hi, I'm not exactly sure how the custom commander thingy works, but just wanted to ask around if you would be interested in this as a commander: It's called the Rook. I made it a few years ago in my spare time, first the digital/animated version, then later I worked together with Michael Fichtenmayer who produced it as 1/35 scale resin kit at Industria Mechanika Let me know if you are interested. 3D files available
Wow that looks really good. I think you need to be a $1000+ kickstarter backer to request custom commanders though (someone correct me if i'm wrong).
Actually, I have an idea. If you see my form signature thingy, there's a huge mod in progress which adds commanders (well, technically it edits existing ones because adding new ones is not possible). If you want, we could add this to the mod. It's probably going to have to be reduced in poly count though, I can tell that's a whole lot of detail right there. If interesting just PM me, this was a blind decision and I haven't had time to discuss with any of the other mod creators xDD
personaly i think we need more tank commanders ... the problem with your comm however where to put the arms?
Ah, of course...didn't think about the arms. But I think it would be easy to add them to the sides, would need a remodel anyway
As others have said you wouldn't be able to add it into the game as an 'official' commander, however you would be able to create a mod that adds it in one way or another That is a really nice design though for sure, provided you can find a way to keep the 'feel' whilst getting the poly count down I think it would be a superb addition. Have you considered it could be a t2 / experimental unit though rather than a com? That way you wouldn't need to bother about arms anyway (which I think would ruin the feel of it)...
oh gawd. *looks for napkins* Wondering how you'd texture it in pa style. Nonetheless it looks awesome!
