'tis nice.

For the model part, it looks nice, maybe on of the best custom made models I've seen so far in mods.

But as for realism: what the hell is it? It looks like an US M270 MLRS with it's launcher cut in half and turn aside...

Well I was looking at the concepts for a missile launcher for the Iraqis. The original was going to be a modified version of a Russian Artillery, however, that ended up being the Australian Missile Tank

So i looked for alternate designs and figured that a modified version of the TD MRLS would look cool, thats how the Iraqi SSL was made.

I have seen a lot of models recently all with a "camoflage" type of skin, are you all finding it easier to skin all your models with Camoflage? lol

Its an Iraqi vehicle make it look dirty :D

could do with a little more detail and a little more rounding, but it look nice.

I think it's a bit sick to give the Iraqi's a weapon which cost them in the real life between 5,000 and 10,000 lives...

Model: 3.5/5
Skin: 1/5

Skin sucks ass, model is fine assuming it gets a better skin.

Camo all by itself is a cop-out skin seeing as nothing in real life is JUST camo. I see no panel/dirt/corrosion/dust/scratches/spare tires/bolt ANYTHINGon that. It _looks_ like a low poly model :)

Also the iraqi flag looks like a big sticker since it's riding on top of the camo so perfectly and has hard, exact, edges.

So to sum up.

The model is fine, the skin on teh other hand needs to be completly redone.

Thanks Proclone, some constructive criticism. If you look closely, i did put panelling on it, however, I set the opacity to high. I will go into PSP and re adjust it.
But yes, I will redo the Iraqi Flag, and it will look good by the time the beta comes
