Revision: Read the complete review of the old version here.

 

 

Buildpic: In all ways exellent...

Bildpic: 10 [ 8 ]

 

Model: The model have been resized, just as I asked for it, but only a fragment of the useless faces have been removed. I have attached a [ 3DO ] that I will hopefully get right this time (and as usual, all useless faces are colored red. If a chain made of three faces got one red colored texture, it means that you can remove it and stretch the others to fit) [3]. The texturing is done according to the OTA Stumpy style and is done rather good actually. But I really miss the shading that all OTA units have (that gives them a more 3D look) where the front left corner have light textures and the opposite corner have dark ones. Extract some models and see what I mean. The faces just above and beneath the Arm logo don't fit and the green textures seem to have been chosen a bid randomly but still, it's an overall good work. Something that I forgot to add before is that it is hard to see the barrels because they are dark and hide in the body textures. They are retextured in my version [4]. The corpse is very good, but perhaps the turret should have a different texture... [1].

Model: 8 [ 7.5 ]

 

Script: The model lacks a sleeve and therefore, all barrels are aimed separately in the x-axis. The wheels look very good.

Script: Not counted

 

Balance: The minor flaw it was equipped with have been removed and this unit is now highly balanced. Congratulations...

Balance: 10

 

My score: I like lvl1 units that are well-made. This one is perfect... Well, except the barrels.

My score: 10

   

Total score: 9.5   [ 7.9 ]
