Now I dont want to sound rude but sometimes you need to be unrealistic to look realistic. This why heroic scale looks right even though the proportions are way off, its why we have to accentuate highlights and shadows far more than a larger model would.
its why mud has to be done differently.
Your depiction of mud might be to some degree 'accurate', but all I see from your Manticore is a model painted in random colours.

I made sure to likewise insult his skills in his few gallery images. He is apparently the stereotypical no-talent ass-clown I first suspected him of being. Anyone with talent or skill would not resort to such douchery.

Thanks for the defense guys. I see by his gallery he is a painter-not. Jealousy can make folks quite ugly can't it? That was not his first dig at my works, seems to do that every few hundred posts, and apparently does not grasp the concepts here. Now for getting back on track and to help ignore troll-boy, I have fresh pics for a nice update.

Nice collection of vehicles dude, I'm working on a tank at the moment too and can appreciate the work it takes, especially when parts have to be sourced or even scratch built.
Ignore douchebags like the afore mentioned because just like a douche, he probably lives somewhere smelly and dark with an old lady.
Keep it up!

They should buy them all and expose them to the world! Maybe with enough exposure they can go back to doing what they know, like chocolates and watches, and everyone who hides money there gets it seized. Sadly, that probably wouldn't cause any of those people to be reduced to a sustenance living so they could see and feel firsthand the kind of poverty they inflict on other people by their greed, but It would be fun to see.
