Even at it's current state, that's pushing it for the poly count for most engines. Although high poly models are teh sex, that tank looks like an awesome WIP, can't wait to see it finished :D.
Phantom, you going to need to do optimisation for the project or you getting away without doing it?
Nah, they just need to know you have a basic knowledge at this stage. I'll probably optimise it when i have time anyway and maybe try to texture it.
EDIT: Did the turret today, and re-did the wheels as well as the grate on the back (it's nice and wavy now). All I need to do now is add the details like hull mounted MG, shovel, cabin door, search lights, smoke launchers etc.

Clusterfuck of Tri's on the front wheel! lol.
Other than that looks good to my extremely limited experience eye lol.
This is the final version for now, got other stuff to work on. I might start it again after my exams.

Nice.
You've got very good rendering technique as well, shows off all the detail of the model without it looking bad :).
This is what I handed in (along with a 2500 word report).

VERY nice. Animation is pretty awesome as well, +1!
Why's nothign blowing up :(
So I've decided to give texturing a go, never really got into it when I first tried as I raged quite a bit, but now have someone to help me and point me in the right direction.
So following on from the glock tutorial (I used the supplied .max file, bugger finishing my one haha) I gave it a shot; (Only part of the clip done so far)

Following a tutorial one step at a time, first it's the rest of this, then an AK, after that I'm going to make headway on unwrapping the texture (Teething problems again, checkerboard patters not showing) and then go for a few without tutorials hopefully.
Veeery nice, did you make the whole texture because it looks awesome. Not sure what the hole things are though.
I did indeed, thanks :). The tutorial said the hole things are to do with how many bullets are in the clip, there should be about 4 more but cba re-sizing and sorting them all out, may do it when it comes to fine tuning.
Hopefully when it's all done and given bump + specular maps it should looks pretty good :).
Moving along and doing the topslide;
