Looks nice, very nice, but this ´droid is called "Tri droid" and TRI means, that it has three legs, but yours has four. I guess, you should thing about it. But except of this, its very good.

yea. Take off a leg [ouch] lol And if someone can, you'd mildly have to edit the droideka animations. But the top would turn so...I dunno make it like the homing droid. Yea. Technically most of the vehicle-like things in the prequals used by the CIS are droids- With exceptions of AAT, MTT...and the like. Dunno if the above animations would work though. Might wanna get some of the members to help with animating...and maybe textures too unless you're good with that. Good work, can't wait to see this baby in some maps. :D

the weapons could be spiderdroid-like cutting laser, and some heavier laserbolts (like in the regular turrets)

no it's an optuptarra droid, or a smaller version of the tri droid. i'll take a leg off though the reference image screwed me up.

That looks very nice, drummerzoid1. I hope that the loss of a leg cut down a few polygons? :P

Anyway, it looks very accurate to the picture. Good job!

Why was the one leg removed? There are two types of this droid if I am correct, one with four legs and one with three legs.

Equipped with beam weapons and missiles, these three-legged artillery droids were formidable in battle, taking on infantry and tanks alike. In addition to using a wide array of weapons, the tri-droids could scale walls, which meant they could reach places most ordinary armor could not.

Just clarifying. ;)
