Ah, ok, also disaster is doing a paint over to give me some more ideas.
To be honest it'd probably be better to take the AA gun skin and make it match the Bungie one; that way you'll also get an idea of how to better replicate thier materials. That edit to make it "AA"-ish is pretty lackluster though (the redish-gray on the unarmored sections look pretty tacky), if anything I'd improve that instead of making an entirely new skin for the tank.
And I don't think re-unwrapping the Bungie wraith will do you much good, as it's pretty well-done and packed as it is.

Ok for the unwrap part, but I might still skin the wraith just to get some practice in on a full vehicle. Also this is a side project for advancebo, if he wants to make some attachments to make it more AAish, that's up to him, but he is in detention so I have no idea what he would do.
Covenant stuff is always really bright and sticks out like a sore thumb; it's one of the few games left that doesn't suffer from dirt brown syndrome. Crank up the saturation to bring it into line with everything else. In addition, you might want to do something about the detailing - it's too boxy and very simple, it doesn't look right for the Covenant. Typically Covenant vehicles and weapons are made from a lot of curved plates with intricate circuitry exposed in some places; I don't think I've seen a single Covenant object yet that just has straight-edged, square metal panels. Hell, even our modern-day vehicles tend to lack straight panels. Look at the Halo 3 vehicles and mix it up a bit.
