[Bluefog]

Yeah, purple is alright, I guess.

[Kastrenzo]

Is that Azure color still in circulation? That one was kind of rad.



I think this is the particular shade I'm talking about

[Zahru II]

Yeah, azure is readily available and part of the current palette. You're mixing it up with teal, which got discontinued around 2008ish.

[Vami IV]

the last time i remember seeing teal brix on store shelves was bak in the Mocia days in like 2003. i was like 2.5 feet tall back then

[Scratch]

Totally missed that this got posted, I approve and really like all of them.

*Flexes Menacingly*

Peachamir Putin, "Democratically Elected" President

Once A KGB thug, always a KGB thug.

Sherman, High General:

Two officers flanked by Spetznaz soldiers.

Vehicles

VDV Buggy

Spoiler

The primary Fast Attack Vehicle of 45th Union Paratroopers.

It's more or less the old Rat jeep with some added bits.

"Why do we have windshield wipers with no glass?"

Vodnik

Spoiler

This dependable 4x4 was introduced to replace the aging ASV.

It appears I forgot the proper 3/4 shot...







I'm pretty proud of the doors.



t does fit a small engine.





Seats around 4.

BTR-14

Spoiler

Show

The Speed and Armor on this transport does not mean it sacrifices offensive capabilities.

I added snorkels, a bulkier turret, and some more little its and bobs.







Fits a good deal of soldiers, if they lay low.



Driver and gunner's seats.

BMD-15

Spoiler

Show

A standard turret on a heavily modified BMP chassis, the BMD sacrafices transport capabilities for offensive power.

Can you see the periscopes?





I really like the rear of this tank.





Fits around 5 if you cram.



Driver and gunner.

Gladiator Main Battle Tank

Spoiler

Show

The GA-35/C is an improved version of what was already one of the most powerful tanks in the Galaxy.

The first thing I did in this redesign was add those orange light-things that are on real T90 turrets.



Then I threw some headlights in.



I made the back sexier, made the fuel tanks sturdier, and added turn signals.



And added some stuff to the turret.



The Driver now has a periscope and hatch.



The hatch can only open when the turret is like this though.



The main additions to the turret were smoke grenade launchers, radar, and the bar on the back.





Naturally the main gun can elevate, the mortar can elevate, and both the main turret and the MG can rotate 360 degrees. The hatch on the turret can close too.





The engine can be removed.



As can the turret.





The Gunner has his own little pit.







Join the 45th today!

Iron Maiden

Spoiler

Show

This walking tank is the most feared weapon in the 45th Union's arsenal.

The actual mech is mostly the same as before. Only the legs have really been modified.



I really like the emblem on it's arm.



Engine.







The Pilot has his own little screen on the hatch roof.





The Maiden's Battle Rifle has been much improved.



Hellion VTOL

Spoiler

Show

A small VTOL perfect for insertions and extractions. Comfortably Seats four.

Insanely ugly and likely to be replaced.

The KA-7 "Horsefly" VTOL

Spoiler

Show

A new utility and transport VTOL is entering service to replace the aging Hellion. Slight modifications to the passenger cab make the Horsefly capable of exoatmospheric flight.

The original plan was to have a chin-mounted chaihttp://brikwars.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=13937ngun, but there wasn't enough clearance.







Uncomfortably seats six, and seven is a definite possibility.









Thrusters can rotate for both hover and flight modes.



"Hip" MI-9A Assault VTOl

Spoiler

Show

This nimble attack VTOl packs quite the punch.

The main modification i made to this is that the autogun was removed from the tail and one was added above each missile cluster.





instead the tail now holds a wheel.



Which can be retracted.



Also the pilot now has a joystick.

Falcon Interceptor

Spoiler

Show

The new principal fighter craft of the 45th Union requires less pilots than it's predecessor, and is much faster than contemporary fighters

The main modification was this sticker, and general smoothing of rough edges.





And the missile holders are more stable now.

[Vami IV]

Would adding two small 2x1 pieces to the slanted pieces behind the wheels be a bad idea?

"URAH!"

ВДВ - с неба привет.
Ультрамариновый набок берет,
Тельник с волной и море погон,
С небом навеки десант обручён.

ВДВ, сколько побед!
Из парашютов белый букет.
Радугой мирной парят купола.
Слава десанту!
Честь и хвала!

Would adding two small 2x1 pieces to the slanted pieces behind the wheels be a bad idea?

Spoiler

Possibly, it could interfere with the arc of the wheel to either prevent it from folding out or folding flush...

You know, I was going to do that but It completely slipped my mind. I put some plates on, and it looks a bit better now. In fact, since you reminded me, now I'll do

Hot damn, you've got 12 major factions so far with squads and vehicles apiece. It's like you have your own little slice of the brikverse in your room.
