You seriously just changed your sig to that?

[james+burgundy]

sure its the "in thing" to make a sig quoting me doing some spelling error so i made one doing the opposite

[Warhead]

OH Good grief, he did not just say that!?!

EDIT, Hmm, it was meant in a teasing way... J+B is renowned for being... ...J+B, I guess...

You're one to talk. I read your website and saw this little snippet:


"BOOM!!! The Rider of Rohan kills some fool in an orange jumpsuit. What idiot dresses his army like that anyway??"



Now, maybe you're not aware of the Assyrian Star Empire, but if that's the case then I will enlighten you:






And yes, that is a massive 148-brick long star cruiser backing them up. I wouldn't go hating on their orange outfits until you can match their firepower.



(I'm just messin' lol don't worry.)

4/5. Hull is perfect, but I dislike the flat front of the turret.

[james+burgundy]

yea the turret is a bit messed up but im not one for tanks can't build them very much what you can see is there is a compartment inside the thing holding a few extra missiles that is the biggest add on

[Warhead]

Ok, not really a fan of hover tanks but it's not too bad. The turret is too tall for my liking (big silhouette is bad for tanks) and the hull looks a bit like a mobile phone but it's still pretty good none the less.

You get three stars

[james+burgundy]

the haul is so low to the ground shells never get close they just pass over and the turret is so small its hard to hit so as like as there is a 3=4 brick high wall the thing is 95% covered

[Warhead]

Yeah, the HULL is fine but the TURRET is the problem for me. Look up some of the WWII tanks and compare them to modern tanks. Turrets in modern tanks look squashed flat in comparison but the modern tank is still bigger. So for me that kind of makes the design just a bit, impractical. If you read some of the stuff about WWII Tanks you can find out more as they kind of sussed it out mostly during this era.

[james+burgundy]

yeah i get what you are saying but i was not really up for redesigning the tank


Thanks for reminding me about misuse of words or spelling its not as if ever one else here does that but thanks its just what i needed more criticism

[Warhead]

Yeah well don't take it to heart J+B it's not like I'm having a go as such. I just think you can do better. As for spelling, I was shite at spelling and grammar when I was a teen... still am.

Been thinking of the tank... is it just me or does it remind you slightly too a bit of a Russian BMP personnel carrier?
