Battleship for someone else's nation.

Nice IJN directors and 25 mm/60's.

Thank you.

A reinforced Infantry/Tank platoon. I kind of like the idea of a tank in an infantry unit to serve as a form of short range artillery and fight other armored vehicles should they accidentally bump in to them. Then the tank itself is boosted by the presence of infantry, who can go around and flank tanks, particularly with anti-rockets and weapons, like javelines, or a tow missile launcher mounted on the vehicle or AGM-114. So instead of 2-3 Bradley's per tank, it's a full infantry platoon of Namer APC's per tank. You could also have cannons on the APC, like 30mm or 40mm.

So, all of my frontline infantry divisions would have tanks attached to the platoon, serving as either anti-tank divisions when needed or anti-infantry. The squad is a 10 man squad, broke in to 3 fireteams of 3, with a marksmen attached for 10 men total. Each fireteam has 2 grenadiers and a machine gunner. 3 Squads make a platoon of 30 men, without any support units, relying on the 7.62mm machine guns they use instead of a larger machine gun like an M240 bravo, and the vehicles for .50 caliber machine guns and 40mm automatic grenade launchers. Then there's one support namer APC in the platoon, which both acts as refueling an rearming for the other vehicles, particularly the tank, and also has medics in it as well as stretchers. The namer in particular is designed to serve as a medical vehicle in all forms, with one stretcher even in ordinary vehicles. This kind of integrated medical support gives nearly instantaneous medical treatment which dramatically increases survival rates, although it requires a lot of medical training for a lot of people. The one unmanned support vehicle also has anti-tank missiles on it as well, which vary depending on type. I'm partial to the javeline and AGM-114, but the AGM-114 requires an integrated radar system and isn't really a stand-alone weapon. You can also use only lightly guided missiles to have it serve as rocket artillery. Typically also it has a mortar.

The support vehicle is an unmanned vehicle controlled by a member of the 6 man namer support team. This vehicle can resupply and refuel the other vehicles as well, as well as carries around a mortar and some heavy weapons like a machine gun, but is predominately designed as a support vehicle for the other one's. Being unmanned, it's thin armor is far less of a problem when refueling other vehicles. As 50% of losses in Iraq and Afghanistan were fuel convoys, and another 20% were water convoys, having these units be unmanned and somewhat armored reduces the death toll of the entire unit dramatically and allows it to operate 24/7 at the constant beck and call of the unit. Due to the size of the namer and it's power, it can be either an IFV or an APC, so it doubles in that role allowing it to attack the enemy. Not shown in the picture is the 40mm cannon or anti-tank missiles. This particular rifle squad also has no support units, as the average machine gunner is already using a 7.62mm negev and tavor. In the LSAT variant the round is caseless, giving it half the weight, and it's a 6.5mm instead which is more accurate and has a longer range. As well the namer APC and tank serve as weapon carriers, such as for a .50 caliber machine gun or 40mm grenade launcher.

Same thing as before, but "modernized" to have soldiers with face shields and 14 man namer's instead. Stretching a namer by 2-4 feet in length shouldn't add all that much extra weight. In all iterations, I forgot to add drivers to the namers, which is 2 soldiers.

I also like some of the modernized M113's out there, like the ACV-15 and ACV-19 for smaller/cheaper squads.

Those still aren't Namers and your ideas are still bad.

I find it hilarious how literally every vehicle now has Chaparrals tacked on randomly.

In grim dark alternate Manokan Future, helicopters hide around every corner requiring each IFV to provide its own air defense.

The Chaparrals have 120mm guns poking out of them.

[The Akasha Colony]

Working on a high-speed trainset. I'm still finishing up the details of the other cars but this is a livery test using the driving car.



This is probably the most complicated gradient job I've had to deal with yet, since the general concept is a smoothly curved, almost cylindrical body like the Series 500 Shinkansen rather than a boxy body like the later N700 series. I've yet to figure out how to alter the horizontal star gradient so that it also ends up merging into the vertical gradient of the car body.

Figuring out a livery scheme I liked took a while and then after I decided to mock one up it turns out to be much harder to draw than anticipated. I was hoping to add a "macro size" dithering effect like the new Avelia Liberty concepts for Amtrak that would transition the rest of the upper body back to the same blue as the star but haven't figured out a way to do it that doesn't involve manually placing every dot. The red cheatline and gray underbody panels would remain, but the rest of the body would transition to blue for most of the train's length.

That's really nice, but I would suggest giving it a dark olive green color.

Needs twin-arm launchers and a turret-top aircraft catapult (UAV catapult?)
Oh, and underwater torpedo tubes so it can still engage submarines while cruising the arctic pack ice.

Also, some of the small greeblies (like the ones on this radar thing) don't seem to be visible on the top-down, though they look like they're big enough that they should be.

[The Corparation]

I was too lazy to draw a full top down of all the greeblies

Fair. Though if you ever find yourself with nothing to do, I think adding in all the greeblies would really put that extra polish on the picture.

Speaking of polished pictures, here's something I'm working on:
