Better than I could do (by far!), but still a bit bald <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Good to see that so many people want to give it a try <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I hope the maps are OK, I kinda rushed them :/

Its a nice metal and good for a first, let me show you some tips:
Use the dodge tool sparingly around the edges of the model, makes it look like its been worn around the edges a bit. After your done, use the contrast adjustment to make the skin show out better so its not so washed out and you can see the edges. Use the burn tool on the end of the barrel and go back with the dodge tool and keep switching them back and forth till you get a nice burn at the end of the barrel, adds even more to the worn look of the skin. Lighting is important too, any grooves in the metal, you might want to go back with the burn tool and lightly go over the edge where the light would cast over it to make it look like theres a slight shadown on it.
Some screws and bolts would look neat too, theres a tutorial <a href='http://st.burst.cc/tut_trunks2.htm' target='_blank'>here</a> that will show you how to do that. If you did that, you could be a really good skinner with practice <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
*edit* Also try to download some grunge brushes, they usually come with scratches made and they look alot better than the circle brush <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Which game?
The reference I linked is a about NavyField, the model itself is for NS.
those "bags" cover the holes in which the turret guns move up and down, thus preventing corrosive SALT WATER from entering- they are rubbery and very thick, resiliant, and can last for many years before needing replaced
c'mon... you should know that...
So I need the siege's base reskinned to match the gun, pretty please <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
