I think the bushes are a weak point. I'm pretty sure there's video of it, but look for the Tree technique that DarkWinter did a demo of at SlayerCon2... I think you could easily adapt to use that and improve the look of any trees/shrubs.


2nd though...who's manning the checkpoint? and why... It seems like a random stop in a random road. If it's the entrance to an outpost or facility, I would expect some fencing.. If it's something like a boarder crossing...I think a little shed to protect the guard from the elements would be nice.

yeah the trees suck I agree.

That is what a checkpoint is... a random station on a random road..see when you occupy an area the only way to secure your rear areas is to set up random checkpoints or the enemy would just adjust accordingly.. and anyone who has manned a checkpoint knows you don't hardly ever have a nice cozy place to get out of the weather..


thanks for your input..

Just remember, arctic stuff had a tough time selling for Joe as well. Some people like it, some people don't. See how it does repainted to be all jungly, or flock it with model railroad stuff and see how that goes.
