Here is kind of another redo on an image. I liked the first one but I wanted to do an image where more of the machine was revealed. Also wanted to practice more post techniques. A few of the elements are changed out as well. I built a new mini-gun and wanted to have something to mount it on. The Minion was a good candidate. Created this image with Lightwave 6.5 and Photoshop CS 1.

Pictured here is the Diamondback IFV suppressing enemy fire while troops prepare to exit the vehicle. The Diamondback is the next evolutionary step from the Python armored vehicle. The Diamondback does have an on-board AI which helps with navigation and target acquisition. Armed with a 20mm cannon as its primary weapon system the Diamondback is designed to get troops in the field quickly and as safely as possible.

The Lynx is armed with a 20mm cannon, a Hades rocket pod and various active defense systems. The four layers of armor cover the chassis and is powered by 8 in hub motors.

This is the Kodiak Mk III, Tank Killer. The Kodiak can be utilized as an IFV or an Infantry support vehicle. Armed here with two 30 mm guns and 12 TOW missiles. This particular Kodiak has been utilized as a sentry to guard against enemy armor and is programmed to fire on any armor unit that does not have a transponder signal it does not recognize. The Kodiak can also be driven manually by infantry units or remotely operated via satellite

Well this is something that I have been wanting to do for myself for quite sometime and I guess it seems some things have come full circle and I find myself at this crossroad once again. I have learned quite a bit since and will now venture down this path and see where it leads. More to come.
