German E-100 "Krokodil" Tank
Recent render: New project and new post, this time I'm working on the (fake, never actually built or designed) German WWII tank "E-100 Krokodil". There seems to be two different designs with the same name but as you can see I'm working on the "turtle" variant. Current progress on the blockout: Finding good reference images… -
Re: German E-100 "Krokodil" Tank
I've mostly finished the tracks and wheels, I did some adjustment to the overall length of the vehicle, it was a bit too long before and I wanted to match the tracks from the real life E-100 prototype. I added sideskirts but I'm not sure if I like them or not. Feedback is always welcome :smiley: -
Re: German E-100 "Krokodil" Tank
Thanks for the feedback :smile: @Zi0 Yeah, I'll probably do something like that, I'm thinking of adding "optional" details such as the skirts and equipment like shovels, C-hooks and liftjack to a separate texture map. Would make it easy to remove different panels to add variety between multiple vehicles. @Anura_Interceptor… -

I tried to figure out the best way to do the welds/cuts and I started off with Substance Painter but theres some limitations with how the brush works with alphas in Painter. The alpha is "stamped" onto the model in… -

That gun is bigger than the tiger, really gives you a sense of scale. I like the sideskirts, they could even stand to be a bit bigger. Maybe keep the solid metal part of the sideskirts in a similar profile to what it has now, but add some wire extensions like what this tank does. -
Re: German E-100 "Krokodil" Tank
I think the sideskirts look cool but I would delete a panel of two to make it a bit more interesting and to make it look battleworn, like it fell of during a battle or something and the crew wasnt able to get a new one yet. -
Re: German E-100 "Krokodil" Tank
You totally should add such details, personalizing a tank in such a way makes it more unique and adds a level of story telling to it. Think about stuff like spare tracks, MG on top, tools, backpacks etc. With these kind of items you can add some contrast to the vehicle texturing wise. I really like your project so keep it… -
