I like your idea and the modell.
My suggestion is to put some medium armor on the ion cannon, cause now its like too easy to harm/destroy.
What are you doing that cannon for? Are you planing on doing a game?
Thx everyone for the replies, ill have to finish it now 
jts01-thx, man
Blenderanim-thx for the suggestions I’ve been wanting to put shielding over treads itll just be hard to mount em, but im sure ill find a way to do so.
mr_bomb-me too 
Gr8RedShark-i’ve got a basic one done(but not rendered), ill have to try to shrink down the size enough so i could get it on alltakens site(since i have no webspace to put avi’s on 
)
Alex-dont worry thats all still visible, the armor only goes to about half ways down you just cant see it from that angle.
flashpoint-Medium armor the stuff on cannon is almost a foot thick in some parts… and im still not done with plating every thing yet.
Hopefully more updates soon!
