Title: Tank/Hovertank/HWP UFOpaedia Image/Inventory Sprite
Post by: REDACTED_KUN on May 07, 2016, 02:22:29 am
You know guys. Can i ask you something.

Last year when i played TFTD. You noticed that there's a Coelacanth/Displacer UFOpaedia image.

That i would suggest that you can probably make your guys own UFOpaedia Image and inventory sprite for all of the Tanks/Hovertanks/HWPS just like that maybe.

Is that okay?

EDIT:

If i would suggest that HWPs might have a similar image of the Sectoid in the UFOpedia background instead of TFTD.

I think that will be a good idea.

sure, it's easy enough to do it, the art is the hard part.

Sure, you've got to clean up after it though.
Yeah the it does look a bit cute, maybe squishing it down a bit more flat will make it look more grow-up.

Why would you need inventory pictures for tanks?
They do not have a inventory compared to soldiers and as far as i know for good reason.

A Ufopaedia picture would really be nice thou.

Nice ones! Can totally recognize the tanks got a treatment of Bloax high-sparkle coat ;)

Sectoid scout: XCom coming in from the West!
Sectoid soldier: My eyes! My eyes! Can't see anything! Who said we should strike at dawn?! These things are brighter than the rising sun!

Bloax work in all honors, but i would prefer pixilated version to not break optical consistency.

What about the ones with Rocket Launcher and Laser Cannon.

Maybe we'll wait for the hovertank's UFOpaedia images/inventory sprites  with other weapons.

Meh, well there's what I managed in 3dsmax, I don't know how much desire there is for it, if someone will use something of the like I might have time to do the hover tanks and flesh out the mesh a bit.
