Whoah, 40 blogs. Thats a lot. It is also my girlfriend's birthday today. Happy birthday Shannon, I love you so much <3 To commemorate these momentus events I have prepared some cool stuff for you to see and watch :c00l:
Grizzly Tank
cfehunter has valiantly been unwrapping and texturing the Grizzly Tank. Here are the results of two days of almost solid work. He stayed up all last night to get the texture finished so big big props to him. I think it has turned out really well and it is cfehunter's best texture so far :) Of course with APB doing camo variants we may as well follow suit so we have included four camo variants :c00l:
Ore Extractor Drill
dtrngd has been busy at work animating the ore extractor drill that will feature on most maps. The animation has been tweaked to a fine art and the sound fits perfectly (although more sound will be added later and timing for the drilling interval will probably be shortened). Take a look below. When I first saw this video I really couldn't believe how atmospheric the sounds made it. Check it out.
GI (Subject to Change) and Sandbags
Here is something that I have been keeping back for a while. From the Verge of Armageddon Assets, we have the GI. The GI is the basic infantry for the Allied Faction, he starts off with a Machine Pistol/SMG weapon which is not as good as the Soviet Conscript's PPSH. However, at the push of a button the GI deploys into some sandbags. He is immobile at this point but he is able to use a much more powerful weapon that has a greater range and pwer than the PPSH. This makes the GI deadly as they can fortify positions particularly well. Although the GI deploys, we are unsure whether we should allow a little bit of movement so that the GI is never totally stationary. Here is the model of the GI ( by the VoA team) and the sandbags (by our very own rm5248).
Bluehell Group
There are only five more days to audition for Operation L.E.G.O! Audition here now or else you will miss out on this great opportunity!
