    A bit, but specifically, drilling straight vertical shafts.

    That is cool! I made something similar in landmark awhile back. But yours is a lot more detailed. Please, keep working on it and properly texture the hell out of it. This has the beginnings of being a really cool build!

    EDIT: sorry, this is the best picture I had of the thing.

    Your build reminds me of the one I worked on some years ago, so I was immediately drawn to it. Please, keep working on it, even if it has no real function. Random sci-fi things placed in the world make the world feel more alive. That thing has a story, even if no one knows it. :)

    The similarities are kinda creepy. I wanted to stop when it was small, I really did. Then all I wanted to do was avoid a phallic symbol, and then it started to look like the Empire State building. I thought about a "dungeon" that went upwards... Never played Landmark but the feel of that pic is dead on.

    WOOOOOOWWWW. That is incredible. Captain Jack, sir, amazing. I love the shots of the comm arrays in the distance at night.

    Tell your Colleague; "This is really interesting." That is an HV correct? I once feebly built a leviathan tank: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=797958373

    It is not as good as that one. :)

    imagin your tank a poi o.o'

    and i told him, idk when it will be done but now im highly looking forward to it, there will be a workshop version too, but the goal is to have a functional mega tank that wont break and can take on a drone base 1v1 without the need to dodge, its goal it to be a tank, and take it without loosing the fight

    The similarities right! Obviously I am not accusing you of copying me, or saying "I did it first" because A. this was done in a different game a few years ago and B. Even in the game this was not something I heavily publicized. I actually made these just to fill up claims (building plots where only I could build) I had scattered all over their servers.

    So, when I saw yours, and the pic of the two towering over the trees, I dunna...the kid in me just got really excited. Keep up the good work!

    Yesterday I finished up the Thunder Naiad as my entry for the Zero G challenge #2. I posted a link and some pics over in that thread. There are many great tanks over there, but I did not actually design the Thunder Naiad for the challenge. It was something I had sketched out as some doodles a while back. To participate in the challenge I only moved up my schedule to translate those doodles into an actual blueprint. However, the Thunder Naiad was never meant to be the sole hover tank for my Dragonfly series. So today I took some time and converted the other set of doodles into the initial shell of the Naiad hover tank. Something with the same starting armament as my Cassowary but actually including a place for an artillery turret add-on later, as well as a shape that fit into the Dragonfly collection a bit better.

    To finish off my planned hover tanks, I would need to finish the basic Naiad for Dragonfly, the Wrath (one of my many BP that just needs a texture and paint job) for Sweet Lemons, and start on the Endurance (planned to have the armament of the Thunder Naiad but a bit smaller overall) for Inspiration Traders.

    Naiad is the plain shell on the right, just enough to hover and move but otherwise that is just a shell with a few turrets slapped on. Thunder Naiad is the painted tank on the left.

    Last note on this topic: Please keep Workshop discussions and accusals out of this forum.

    We cannot change the Steam voting system and we will also not discuss the personal likings or dislikings based on assumptions over someone elses personal likes or dislikes or the human nature, as this is going nowhere except a influx of toxicity and in the end makes everyone participating in those "picking side" nonense look bad and childish. This is not kindergarden. ;)

    If you want to promote or discuss your/any build or any creative piece in a constructive way (critics included), then you are at the right place.

    If you want to discuss someones likes/Dislikes on your or anyone elses workshop content, please use private chat or discuss in the workshop item comments.

    For all our forums, any public chat or accusals on this topic will be removed without review.

    Thanks for your understanding.

    PS: This is NOT adressed to any specific person writing here, but EVERYONE writing here. For a dispute, there are always at least two. So i do absolutely NOT care who "started" or "took part" or which sides are picked. Just fyi ;)
