FLYING GAME : MAYA : TURRETS

I have been set the task within my group to design a selection of turrets for us to choose from, anyone else can contribute to this in the group but I have the responsibility of the main bulk of this work. 
we talked at length about what kind of turret we wanted, the turret is very important is it is the main focus point of the game and in the center of our screens throughout, it must also be constructed in a certain way to allow coding to be put in place to control the turret in game. we decided there were a few different ideas we liked, one of the members of my group provided a sheet of different designs that i could use to model parts from. we also knew from our talk we liked the idea of a Gatling gun as to add motion o the turret. 

TURRET 1.

TURRET 1.2

This is the first design I created, It focuses on the Gatling aspect but is also a different shape, I decided to use parts of this and other guns to create different combinations of turret. Here is what I came up with.

TURRET 5.

TURRET 5.1

This shows there are many possibilities and that there are many more I can make, we will use these and others to come up with a plan for our final design.
