Unit Request: Stryker

[Ekmek]

http://www.army.mil/features/stryker/


Anyone that is good at making vehicles interested in doing this unit? Its what the US army has recently fielded and used in Iraq. It was thought that it would replace the M1A1 but really its an attempt to make the US Army more mobile and deploy quicker. Some called it a 'peacekeeping' vehicle.


the different versions can be seen here:

I for one am anticipating this unit with much salivation.

 

[Ekmek]

I started a stryker a while ago. As you can see it is not very far along.


I will probably finish it, but I am thinking of waiting until I figure out how to make it in bryce (3d) rather then continue in Photoshop. Photoshop takes much more work to get the same results, and there are some effects that are very hard to duplicate in a 2d drawing program.

There is a Stryker unit in the World 2004 media package. I don't remember who made it and don't know how accurate it is, but it seems to resemble Bjornlo's preview. I'll tell you more when I get home.

 

[Ekmek]

Sweet. Please post!

 

[El Justo]

i'd like to see what it looks like, too.

 

[Bjornlo]

Does anyone have an image that shows what the top of the stryker is supposed to look like?

The stryker was left out of the world2004 mod.

 

[Blackbird_SR-71]

no in the World 2004, the US starts out with a Stryker unit in Iraq and can build more of them. but i'm playing version 1.3 which isn't public but i'm sure the Stryker was found in the original
