[airstrike] tank?

Nope, sorry.. I used a real image and resized / edited it with Gimp. I not much of a POV man :-) (if only I had more spare time!)

Thanks for the tip. The airstrike graphics look great which makes me very interested in the usage of POVray for my own game. 

> Btw. What's the original inspiration for the game?

I started out without an original game in mind. Later on I learned about scorched earth but I think it looks poor (sorry guys.. no offense, the gameplay is great). The objective of my game will be quite similair though.

wow, you do know how to use great colours :-) (and startup options too ;-)
I know it is offtopic but may I ask how much time you spent on that game? (This 'tuxtank' is my first 'real' C++ project and things do progress but due to a lack of spare time sometimes very slowly).

Sorry if I am too off topic.. I will not do it again

Regards,
Rob
