Title: HTL Watchdog/Cerberus
Post by: mjn.mixael on February 20, 2013, 10:34:50 pm: Got bored yesterday and felt like modelling. BOOM.

Out came these.

Watchdog (View in 3D (http://p3d.in/5KVVw))

Cerberus (View in 3D (http://p3d.in/n5yM0))

I differentiated the Cerberus from the watchdog with textures and blue glows.. similar to Levi/Fenris and my more recent TC2/TSC2.

Of this kind of awesome. I waited to see a HTL of those sentry guns for quite a long time. And more so, differentiation between the two - it always shat me how easily you could confuse them.

So far, the level of detail on the model? Terrific. And the textures look great. Please, continue! ;)

Indeed, no excuse for lazyness around here when textures are involved! :D

You mean you can't control if they're unlisted or not?

Post by: mjn.mixael on February 22, 2013, 01:59:55 pm: You can, it's just not listed by the rest of the settings anywhere. It's easily overlooked.
