Well I saved a lot of versions as I've been going along and just went back and make screen captures of my progress.


Might want to check with Mike quickly with regard to the character rule or if you can go ahead with a sort of non-character entry.
Yes, I checked with Mike. He's fine with it as a character entry. In the game, the vehicle IS the main character, there are no "people" anywhere. I know that may hurt me a bit in the voting phase but hopefully not.

Thanks for the comments!! Will try to post some progress here later today.

Well, haven't had any more time to work on this one but hopefully in the next few days I'll get some more work done. I still need to work out how to connect the cab with the rear of the vehicle.

Thanks for those who voted more favorably in my poll, and for those that don't agree with my choice of "character"....well, thanks for your honest opinion. Like I said before, it's my first contest here and really just wanted to participate. Thanks to all who've made comments so far, I really appreciate them as well. Keeps me motivated.

looking really good

You could add a large piston between the two parts sat at 45 degrees from the ground so that it could be used to make the vehicle jump. That or add a thruster there so that it can fire and propel the vehicle upwards.
Just ideas

Sorry to say it but I don't think at this point that I'll be able to continue in the competition. Work has been insane and my "free time" has been zapped up for the past couple weeks. I'd like to still finish it just to see how well my "non character" entry could do in the voting but I'll have to play it by ear.

Thanks for all your comments, hopefully you'll see this model in the WIP's section in the near future.
