Chapter 10: Modeling Tank Tracks
In this chapter, we will model the wheels, tracks, suspension, and sprockets for the T-72 tank. We will model the wheels from the basic shapes that we created in Chapter 7, Modeling the T-72 Tank: Basic Shapes, and we will create the tracks using Array and Curve modifier techniques, which we have already learned about.
By the end of this chapter, our T-72 tank model will be complete and ready for rigging and texturing.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Creating the suspension and wheels
- Modeling a sprocket
- Creating the tracks
- Finishing the tracks
