The metal plates look dark than usual which is something I like, the first few HD skins were too bright for my liking.

This one looks awesome! Better than all HD skins that are out there In my opinion.
Well done on this one!

It looks awesome, but what I don't understand is why (according to the Vlog), it took a month to implement AFTER all of the design and 3D modeling work was done. Considering that Vulcan Ultra skin exists, shouldn't the HD be essentially a reskin of the Ultra version, with some minor model changes? I'm genuinely curious why implementing an HD skin takes so much programming work.

i don't like staring down the barrel of vulcan in battles. it's among the most mosquito-esque turrets to face.

what makes you think i'd wanna see it in high definition

I use this kind of excuse when working with my client's commissions too. Though obviously I don't say it took me months. Only a couple days extra. This allows me to get some breathing room and making 100% sure that what I am doing can be done at the highest standard and at a pace that 100% will not lead to burnout.

 
This could be the tanki's reason too but them taking MONTHS to model something (even from scratch) and implying that its the best case scenario? I can 3D model a whole house (Interior designer) in like 10+ hours with details like books and small plants etc. Sure like 60% of it is from pre-made assets but even when making things from scratch I really do have VERY hard time believing it takes them MONTHS especially when their turret designs are far from complicated and are just remakes on top. 

Either they're the slowest modeling team you know, laziest one you know or they're 3D modeling with Microsoft Paint or something. Yes I know about testing optimization visual glitch etc. phases and im including them here.

 

Unless I get to see a live stream of them going from brainstorming phase to implementing the skin to the main servers and it actually takes them months I will refuse to even pretend to believe what they're saying!

Wonderful skin!

Btw, they need to change Railgun, Smoky (HD = M2 HD, not M3) and Ares (looks more like Ultra-style skin) to better fit the rest)
