Am I right in thinking that the Argus was invented by Microsoft for Mechwarrior 4?

Just one of its variants, the -3D. The rest are BT.

Gotta say, that thing is so ugly it's cool.

Just wait a bit, extra details will be added when i bake a higher detail model. i expect that be be quite a while

That's cool!

It might benefit from some more rigid sharp corners and edges. Everything seems to be subdivided in one smoothing group right now, which is bubblifying the chiseled mechanical hard surface machine look.

Or at least consider adding a pass of loops near the edges so when you subdivide/smooth, there are more flat surfaces.

Do not worry, i will do that, i'm just seeing if there is an alternative, as the model has a few too many loops for my computer to handle as it is. but right now, i'm working on UV unwraps and baking the model

For those eagerly waiting an update, i am currently uploading a video in the idea of a sort of 'Filler', Humblest apologies on the mic, only using Nvidia Shadow Play

Here it is!

Base UV completed, read the description on YouTube for more info and a poll.

You should really get rid of the smooth shading.

Right now it looks like a spore creature but machines usally have sharp edges.

It's been a while, so i thought you might like to see what i've been doing. General concept is changed. do note there will be a snippet and details of the newer concept tomorrow.

I do apologise, here is the last model, I may not be posting here anymore, since things im working on don't really apply to MechWarrior anymore.

And now that is a Nova

Which is not necessarily a bad thing

Here is the model animated, along with a few minor changes
