December 2009 Concept: Futuristic Tank
An armored weapon of the future be of human, alien or other origins. The tank can be the traditional treaded behemoth with a teeth filled with armaments. Perhaps a tank of the distant future that hovers quickly with energy weaponry destroying all in its path. Giving difference in genres and technology levels will give us each many options for a concept thats probably out of many of our comfort zones. Good luck, our target date is November 16th.
It seems we are all having trouble with the Boogeyman concept and hopefully we all make great progress soon. Remember its never too late to post any of the past concepts, so lets not give up if we do not make a deadline.

The idea is of a small, remotely opreated tank. It operates with a modified L7 105mm cannon with a suppressor to help conceal its location, and an FN MAG as its secondary weapon.
So here is my "sketch" versions of the tank concept assignment. I at first had trouble getting into this, but after re-visiting the topic, I finally got something that I like. It's not these. These however, are something that my kids helped me develop. The top is a hover tank design and the bottom is a drill tank.
I cheated and I feel bad about it. I really wanted to draw the tank originally and only planned on doing a perspective study in maya. Then one thing led to another and this happened, guys who commit date rape probably say the same thing. Either way since I got carried away with the perspective study I will finish it sooner or later as a model and update this post.
