That tank... That would be kickass. But is there a good way to pull off a tripod?

That's not a tripod.
That's a Quadpod. (Pun Intended.)
You could make the dropship have a LAZER Feature.

There is no such thing as a 'quadpod', it's 'quadrapod'. And in this case, it's more of a quadraped, as it isn't a stand, but had four feet. Good try though.
Also, previous laser-equipped craft have been rockets. And anyway, it's a cargo vessel, not a combat vehicle.

Well, this is awesome but theres two thing i need to say, first of all in the op, how come in green it's BT-11 but in blue it's BX-11 unless were not talking about the same crafts here and also, the only thing that looks out of place are the two thrusters on top of the craft, i think they should be changed to fit the style of the craft.

Okay, well I've got everything that should be gibbing with the bethesda gibs now. I'll work on the ejecting pilot at some point soom. Anyway, the gibs spread pretty far so hopefully it'll take down an army, as was requested before.

@fyher: I'll fix the typo, it was supposed to be BT. Also, I'm mostly happy with the retro thrusters, I intended them to be that way, it looks beefier. They're supposed to look decidedly "contemporary spaceflight."

@Roy: No lazer. Sand's right, it's a transport.

@Blizz: I'm hoping for a human military aesthetic. They seem like Military Sci-Fi types, which are usually fairly in line with human military, just futuristic. I don't want these guys to be dinosaurs. That said it'll hopefully be somewhat contemporary.

Anyway, the anim' attached here doesn't even contain the full epicness. I'm going to go figure out how I'm going to go set up the WIP of the booster pack, because I want to put the new gun up, it's mostly finished and needs feedback.

More explosions? It seems to just fall apart and just feels weird when the pieces break apart without anything to leave the gaps in between to imagination. Explosions just seem to make things feel more complete.

Yes, as with above, please add more explosions, gibs, gibs of gibs, effects, flashiness, harmful debris ( as in overlapping gibs, like the default DS's ) .

This'll be very interesting end result, epic it should be of course!

Needs moar smoke, explosion, fire, sharpnel and a bit more dramatic damaged effect on the gib sprites.

I'd suggest you do this: Make a single type of a small, but very fiery explosion. Now just as with the dropship's gibs, place several of these said explosions around the craft with offsets. Dont make one big in the middle, it will look like ♥♥♥♥ (My titan cruiser has that right now, but I have a reason for that).
About 5-7 explosions depending on how dramatic you make them and place them around along with the ships gibs.

I was really just thinking dont make it seem alien just make it seem human, but either way ill be glad to see the coalition expantion (When you have alot more, you should change the title to Coalition Expantion, or atleast something like that lol)

Now the gibs look like they are just cut-off pieces of the sprite. Darken the edges, and as numgun said, moar explosions.

*Views GIF* This is fantastic. (But please, don't tell me you can take it down with just an SMG. With that much armor, I expect it to be resilient far beyond a regular dropship.) Also, just a suggestion, how about adding more small gibs? I see you have the main pieces gibbing, but I think it'd look a lot better with a bunch of gibs that are smaller than 15 x 15 pixels. The colors could be one shade darker overall, but only they aren't distorted by CC's palette. Can't wait until this 'goes gold.'

Sorry for the lengthy away, e3specially refering to the last two posters. For now; I've given up on the tank (too effing crazy to make.) That said; I plan on picking it up later when I have more experience with actors.

Until then, I've sketched out some bunker modules mostly designed as unique addons, some rooms, doors defense centers etc (think James Bond.) A really basic one's near completion, but the spriting is very intensive in some cases,a lot of repitition.

As for actor practice, I've wanted to do an armored E. V. A. suit for a bit. It's not coalition, it's for an army that I may or may not have time to make, futuristic spacefaring humans or some such (with futuristic spacefaring-minded equipment, nonetheless.)

The main thing holding me back has been this beast (nothing to do with CC, linked to a ssci-fi story I wrote.) Otherwise, I've been busy with finals. A fourteen minute skit, three programming projects and a splash of art assignments don't help at all. So I've been rather busy. Also, I'm waiting expectantly for more CC updates.

Doesn't need converting, it worked for B22 last time I tried it.
