thx for the warm comments 
@magic - i think you mean âexpensiveâ with polys/vertices - well quite, high detail model will have around 8000 polys/4000 vertices
but it will have 3 LOD levels - lod 1 - around 4000 polys, lod 2 around 2000 polys - hope its not so fps killing then 
(the tiger tank i did woks fine with et - and got 40000 polys/25000 vertices)
@zenith-ply - i think its easy to animate/tag it together -no diffence to a tank - you ll see m8
(adding the animation for the gun foward-backward; and the outflying bullets will be pain in my ass i guess)
@ailmanki - the pics are rendered with lightray 3d - so they are better than in et i think
i think the flash is more reastic for et engine;
maybe x-real gives better results
i ll add a little demo map when i release itâŚ
