    Because I just love this game so much, I decided to do an entire set of fully posable units, styled as a combination of the old Nomads faction and the new, cleaner and less ugly PA faction. I have about 4 sheets of concept art, totaling to around a hundred models, and I don't think I'm done drawing just yet.

    I also have an apprentice of mine working on this, because he had nothing better to do and seemed enthusiastic about the idea and the game. But without further ado;

    All teamcolors will be beige, because it is a Nomadsey color and goes well with the palette for the textures, that and pink clashes too much with it.

    The excessive panel lines are a result of new and old art styles clashing, but I think it gives it a pretty neat rustic look. And yes, I know the treads look like **** (which is the reason for the camera angle), I'll fix them when I look up how to actually make good looking treads.

    The thread title implicitly promised tank ponies, I am disappoint :<

    In all seriousness, how would you feel about a potential teaming up? I could really use a 3d artist for my mods :)

    I've been looking to do that myself. The issue with teaming up, however, is that everyone has a different creative point of view that have tendencies tp clash spectacularly.

    But I'm an optimist. I think. I posted a thread a while back about possibly rounding up all of the modding talent that has followed PA thus far and possibly creating some sort of gigantic mod, on a scale similar to the game itself. A daunting task, but wouldn't it be so cool?!

    Edit: Main post updated with 50% more HAZARDSTRIPE.

    MEGA Necro, I've been doing a lot of modeling, but for a mod, not really fanart. Anyways, I finally decided to do a model of Stealth's Jon Mavor Tech Commander:
    First past before I go to bed, took me about an hour and a half of total work (been working on it in between matches, meals, working on other models and real life stuff):
    [​IMG][​IMG]

    The proportions are just about right, I might slim down the legs a little and obviously I need to connect all the limbs. Anyone have any suggestions on how to do this without varying from the concept art?

    Edit: The Camera Angle's a bit higher in my render, I'm lazy and tired.

    The joints should be hard to see, so you could start with a basic kind of triangle and grow them from there?
