■ INTRODUCTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Born from artistic curiosity and a deep passion for Sci-Fi and Dark Fantasy, the ARV-7 IRONCLAD is a vehicle concept long-held in development and now fully realized. This vehicle is designed to anchor a brand-new universe, and it is my sincere hope that it inspires your rendering workflow.
As with all my products, this is not just a vehicle—it is built to tell a story and exist within a much larger world. To immerse you in this setting, a dedicated "Lore" breakdown has been included with the documentation. Alternatively, you can access the expanding lore document online via the following link:

!!! IMPORTANT 1: I highly recommend parenting the Genesis 9 figure to the Ironclad, making it much easier to move both assets around the scene together.
!!! IMPORTANT 2: CHOOSE YOUR OPTIMIZATION PREFERENCE (4K vs. 2K)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To ensure compatibility across all hardware setups and optimize VRAM consumption during rendering, this product has been split into two independent texture resolutions. You can choose which version to download based on your system specs:
* MUST DOWNLOAD (Core Package):
"PF_Z29-ARV-7_IRONCLAD - Must download.zip" contains the essential shared files (Data, Documentation, and Base Poses). This file is MANDATORY for both versions.
* OPTION A: ULTRA DETAILED (4K Resolution - Default)
Download the "4k version" .zip files. Best suited for high-end GPUs or extreme close-up renders.
* Load via: "! Z29-ARV-7 IRONCLAD.duf"

* OPTION B: VRAM OPTIMIZED (2K Resolution) - LOOKS PRETTY GOOD - Highly Recommended!
Download the "2k version" .zip files. Ideal for saving disk space, mid-range GPUs (e.g., 8GB VRAM), and background or medium-distance shots without sacrificing visual fidelity.
