Obsessive history folk may know where the inspiration for this came from. And by inspiration I mean "ripped off and then stylised somewhat" the generically named Rolls Royce Armoured Car used in both world wars. A lot of the available photos show them in use by the RAF's ground forces.

So this is bigger, boxier and probably less practical, zipping through the desert in the inter-war period (and maybe a little AU- I'm not claiming 100% historical accuracy on this ;p ).

Edit: Made the gun bigger, it's supposed to be like a Vickers not a bloody peashooter!

Nicely done :) My only criticism would be that your lighting appears a bit odd, I feel like the bit just below the gun seems a tad bright, wouldn't it be in shadow? That same spot seems to be a bit strange in terms of the perspective, the right (going toward the rear of the vehicle) angles down and away, yet the other side continues running parallel to it.

I love the speed-blurred background though, looks nice, especially that big bush. The slightly textured look to the metal is also really good, nice and subtle.

Overall a very solid image :)

Well perpective is why I tend to shy away from vehicles, I'll be the first to admit things are probably off. Thanks for the heads up on things, and trust me, I've stared for a while at that damn turret and roof! ;P

You can flip the image to get a fresher look at it, I find that often helps when I'm unsure about something.

The long bonnet certainly maintains the style, bravo!

Well it's probably a bit too big really, but I'll chalk it up to perspective and stylisation :p

Thanks for the fave/comment! :D
