Tank Tracks

Got the script up and running with the tracks.
The Script I used basically allows you to place multiple copies of an object onto a motion path so they can be animated. This was the perfect solution to creating realistic tank tracks.

Here is a short demo of how the tracks are working. Because of the lack of lighting and textures it is hard to see the wheels rotating so I made a few of the faces purple to display the movement.

Hydraulics

Sussed out the hydraulics for the missile launcher and got them working properly. Here is a render showing how it looks at the present time.

Progress :)

Been cracking on with the modelling as of late. Got the tank tracks on today which I am delighted about. Also finally managed to remove the square edges from the heli.

Making progress but still working on removing the square edges.

Helicopter

The body of the helicopter has proved to be quite problematic so far. Finding it difficult to get the smooth shape of the heli whilst keeping some of the hard edges. It is beggining to look like a dolphin.

Design for my heli

Here are some examples of well known gunships.
