Week 2 - 3D Tank

This tank was made by using the simple shapes available such as boxes and cylinders. Then these shapes where manipulated into position. Inorder to get the tank lined up correctly, I created to plains with a tamplate of the top and side view of a tank. When i aligned them together it gave me a referance on buth plains to work from.

The main body, turrent, rear fan casings and the tack belt have all been created with the box tool. Then these boxes where manipulated using vertex manipulation to curve and bend each point. The crack weels, gun and exhaust where created using the cylindar tool with the vertex manipulation applyed as well. However the barral of the gun was created using two tubes to give the barral a more realistic view.

After rendering the tank looks like this:
