What country is this unit for?
 
China not Japan. Japan use the Typ 90 :).
 
Looks good. I know I'll be using it.
 
The Turret should be wider, and there's a distinctive V-shape plate on the front portion of the Chasis
 
Very good model VDog !
I see some advices are smartly used :)

I also think the turret should be larger.
The camo looks really nice.
Maybe you should try to give the wheels a lighter color. If you are using the Rhino template file I posted, you should know that my wheels are colored with a 190,190,190 grey. They appear better that way.

And don't be affraid of making A LOT of frames for your animations. Maybe it will take you twice the time, but the result is also gonna be twice better.

Just go on that way, it's great !

If your 3D program exports one bmp for each frame, and you then have to copy&paste into a storyboard, you can try to use CIV3_SBB. It will save you a lot of time, as it can copy animation with up to 64 frames in a few seconds. In fact, I think it could have even more frame, but it won't work with FLICSTER then

Yes I was planing on useing it :D
 
About the turret being larger, if you look at a type 98 the turret actually is fairly small. I made the unit straight from some blueprints so I think I'll leave it as is. thanks for the comments though :) Funny thing about the camo, if any of you use adobe photoshop you can easily make any color camo in about 3 seconds, just paint a bmp one color u want then toggle the colors and go Render>clouds and its done, it looks quite good I think.


ETA: I'm trying to do at least one animation per day, so it should be done in about 4-6 days :)
 
I did like you suggested boulboulgadol and changed the color of the treads;

Is but we would like to have a tank for every civ and the Type 90 is not the same as the Type 98.
