From top to bottom (for those of you who don't know): Transport Zoid, Blue Whale type, ZGC-002 Blue Emporor Aerial Interceptor Zoid, Swallow type, ZGC-007 Demonwing Land Support Zoid, Dragonfly type, ZGC-003 Flame Skimmer Death Killer Zoid, Aligator type, ZGC-004 Protogator Deep Insertion Zoid, Wolverine type, RZX-01 Wolverex Battlefield Zoid, Wolf type, TX-01 Exo Wolf Battalion Zoid, Panther type, ZGC-001 Cannon Panther Mk.II Recon Zoid, Squirrel type, ZGC-005 Red Scout Commander Zoid, Panther type, ZGC-006 Blitz Panther Mk.II The Demonwing and Blitz Panther Mk.II are new Zoids, the others have been knocking around for a while now!

Thanks for the compliments guys! I used a CAD package called Unigraphics/NX for the Zoids, Terragen for the landscape and Photoshop to bring it all together.
Also, 300th post!

Since I want to be animator I LOVE this stuff. You really inspire me. ^_^ I hope to see more from you soon!
I googled the CAD package (Unigraphics/NX) thing and it really didnt bring up any programs. But I do have photoshop. Congrats on your 300 post by the way.

Terragen :D. I'm no good at using the darn thing, but I like it - you using the free version or the paid one?

Really nice work! Your Barrigator looks so much more interesting than my wind up.

Thanks zoidmagnite! Although the Protogator is a slightly higher calibur than a Barigator! Yar Tilly, using the free version. It's 640 px render limit is partly the reason why this isn't poster size! Terragen certainly is less user-friendly than Bryce, but I think the results are infinitely better. The background I generated really didn't take long, I found a tutorial on dA. Zi Rat, the CAD package's current version is called 'NX6', but it's not really your best bet.

640px? Weird, my free version goes up to 1280x960, unless I'm confusing terms...

It may be because I have Terragen 2 I think. Maybe the version you've got is a previous version?

Anyway, Stompy besides the booster, what else is new on the ol' Blitz Panther? (I'm not good at spotting new parts/upgrades.)

Yeah, it's the old 0.9 (or whatever it was) free version. I take it I don't want to upgrade, even if it sometimes has fits?
