APU re-design WIP

Well, the first APU I built was made in JED.. and when I was able to convert it to the format needed for JA. The poly count was enourmous.

I'm starting over using nothing but 3dsmax (Will be my first successfully finished model in max). Building a slighty higher poly to build texures from. I'll be able to cut back on alot of the detail that the textures can pick up.

New:

My best guess would be "Armored Personnel Unit" or something along those lines. It's the things they're in when they fight the squids in the third movie. They were briefly shown in the second movie as well, upon entering Zion and in background.
