The Progression Of Art II

Description

So this is part two of the art progression series.

On the left is the first tank I ever drew, CCI's infamous drone tank the Chaparral which as you can see from the mini-top down icon was the first tank I drew with the extended track base. In it's first RP a pair of these tanks dueled with a Corrupted Warhammer 40K scout titan and won. The two tanks pumped rounds into the titan's hip and knee joints until it's legs came off then the surviving one ran over the titan's head. Good times!

In the middle is one of the Ashlain series, of which you may have seen their unique starships posted up here already. At this point I had started creating custom colors so the unique reds of this tank were blended to achieve that bloody tint you see above. The red you see isn't a single color but a pixelated blend of between four and eight shades of red. This process would lead to the next item.

On the right is the Hu-*mumble,barf,gurgle* No seriously it was one of my tanks and I still have no idea how to pronounce it's name! but it was also the first of the camouflage pattern gradient tanks. If I recall right the original colors were paint strips from the paint display at the hardware store I worked at then, I scanned like a madman and composed the paint scheme from that. This was also the first of the 'strange ordinance' style of turret designs. the Hu-*mumble,barf,gurgle* had a double turret or as it was called in-game a 'Inlay' turret were the upper and lower portions rotated independently and their guns elevated and depressed in pairs.

I think and don't quote me on this, the chaparral was the first unit I ever drew, and if not it was the new castle class in the prior piece. I think this covers it but if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask even if it's about the Hu-*mumble,barf,gurgle*! Part 3 of this will likely cover either Iconography or aircraft/starfighters.

BTW the Daisho tank. Do we have any vague information for it?
