WoW, awesome idea but even on real wheels, you cant see through them? You can still see the brakepad and other things...

Did you really have to make two threads about this warthog? Please try to consolidate similar thoughts into one topic, please.

</$0.02>

The model's ok; I kinda like the pickup truck idea. The skin just looks really bland, though. Blech. (EDIT: Upon closer inspection, I see the cuplrit of the crappy skin is a bad graphics card. Even the pistol doesn't have its shineyness. Never mind; nothing you can do about that.)

And though you had a good idea on those wheels, it's not cutting it. You could possibly make another model inside of the main wheel to fill in that area. Or, just remodel the tires to look like that, remap your UVW's, and voila.

You can make aplah channels and make them transparent.Or did you bring down the opacity ioin Photoshop?Cause i always though you can't do it.

No i copied the warthog dds on to a transparent background and then erased what i wanted to be invisible.

doesn't the hog use an internal magnetic braking system?

or maybe its external but is just blocked from view by the wheel. whatever, add some old school discs and brake callipers and you got urself one hell of a hog! very good start, though.
