The Rock Texture 
in IkBlue in quite good and underused. Maybe try gray scaling that bad boy and see how it fits. 
What Would The Tanks Look In Quake? 
Looted leman-russ tanks, just with less color!

like this

and ww2 theme in Quake must be banned. Im serious - its a blasphemy!. There are too many WW2 games already 
Rock Texture... 
... I would change the colour of the skybox. The redness is overpowering. 
Shot Looks V.nice 
I like the IDBase crane!

What editor do you use? I was thinking of upgrading to WC 3.3 cause 1.6 is a pain in the arse, texture-lock only works if you dont want to rotate things. The crates I can see in the shot look rotated, and tex are lined up fantastically. 
Dudes 
Just say no to the light sprite. There is a reason why it was rarely used, even in the original game. 
The Hl1 Tanks 
Are Tigers, I believe. And Nehahra had the Humvee's in some levels - I'm going to be stealing it for a current map.

I remember one level in basic q2 (not Lazarus) that had a working tank turret that was excellent, open area with a black parked tank with a dozer blade on the front, you had to open it up at the back (keycard) and chuck a grenade inside to kill the gunner, great stuff. 
Mmmm, Sprite! 
I use 'em

If it wasnt fer sprites, we never would have had polygonal stuff, then there would never have been cool stuff like HDR Lighting, bump-mapping and whatnot, realtime shadows. Spherical sprites are OK, your never gonna see it from the side. Globes look cool with marsh_lights, different colours!! 
So... 
There are too many WW2 games already

I agree on that point, maybe a simple war theme would be enough.... I'll see if I find another tank prefab (Leclerc, T62 or M1 tank would fit better I think).. something more in line with our spatio temporal continuum :P
In anyway, I will tune Tiger's texture to see if it is possible to make it looking better there.

About the editor, I'm using QuArK. It has an embedded terrain generator, but I don't like it: I prefer using Nemesis' terrain generator, and import the terrain file directly in the map.

Oh, and thanks for the texture recommendation: I'll take a look soon to IKBlue texture pack ;)

I also tried with several skybox, and I love this particular one, that looks really cool: thanks Kell for your DragonHeart skybox: it rocks !

Thanks a lot for all the comments and advices !

I challenge you to come up with a tank that would be used by an ogre. 
Changes... 
Here are 2 new shots of the modifications I did tonight:

ttp://lambert.jeanphilippe.free.fr/Divers/fd1.jpg

Tiger tanks have been replaced by Russian tanks (T62 and T72), rock texture has been changed as well...

Inertia: Ogre's tank is effectively a challenge ;) but I don't want to start it.. maybe in another project :P

Enjoy ! 
Fucking Links... 
 
Stop with the orbs already... :) 
I Agree 
Change the orbs for an orb model or something - they're ok floating in the air but look a bit strange (in game) when supposed to be attached or resting on something. 
They Look Fine. 
 
Ogre Tanks 
The Weapon Factory (weaponf.bsp) had full-ID-style tanks - definitely something an Ogre would drive. 
Thta Looks Cool 
and orginal jpl. 
 
what's with the anti-orb stuff? it's by no means a bad sprite, and it works well for a light source in the shots. 
 
tanks in quake has been done before... remember airquake? the most awesome mod ever, better than nehahra! but they're not really quake style tho 
Tanks.. 
.. are more decorative than functional here... 
Cough 
The Weapon Factory (weaponf.bsp) had full-ID-style tanks

ID-style, eh... 
Hahahahaha 
that's the stupidest thing i've ever seen! 
Heheh 
 
Another Case 
Of memory / imagination playing tricks when dealing with old games - you remember it as some majestic fortress towering into the clouds, populated by vicious slant eyed goblins.

Then you go back and it's a bright pink cardboard box with block green stickmen.

Remember that from an Edge article. 
Yeah 
I guess they're worse than I remembered :) 
Ahahaha 
man, that's gold. thanks neg|ke :)
