This unit was made for RADE. It was made using his model. Since this model was a little lower poly( and less pose-able) than most I've worked with, animation is not quite as detailed, but I think it looks ok.

*applause* this one is really nice looking, mate. You are getting higher up a steep learning curve with each unit you make.

Question about size: To what unit has this one been skaled?

I just tested it and it looks much better than I expected, especially because the model is only 680 polygons.
anyway,

I made the stryker I previewed, and was later offered a nicer model. Which I am still waiting for. The stryker I made is partially animated and all but ready to go. I just wanted to use the fancier model (if possible).
I am working my way down a list. The stryker is close to the top.

I used the Mech Infantry and Firaxis ww2 tank for scale.
Is there a problem with the scale?

Thanks for all the nice comments guys, I'm glad you like the unit. Especially since there will be a 2nd variation of this one as my next unit.
The turret is replaced by a larger missle launcher.

Hats off! Very nice - and much needed unit, at least for me and my future Balkans scenario!

Cool. It possible to have it without the crest so as to use it with other civs?

The details of the crest are not hugely visible in game. If you look at the preview it looks more like a two-tone blue cross then anything else. And it is what provides civ coloration. I will consider re-doing a versoin without a crest once I get through the fairly long list of units I am currently working on.

The thing about todo lists is that they just keep growing.

Isn't that the truth. I started making units with a goal of 5 units in total.
