Thank you, Gareth, for such an amazing piece of art. This isn't exactly 24 million colours, but I think it has to be done for us MGE buffs still around

Some Nakajima Kikka's, basicly a recoloured version of fairlines me-262
I am not delusional! Now if you'll excuse me, i'm gonna go dance with the purple wombat who's playing show-tunes in my coffee cup!
Rules are like Egg's. They're fun when thrown out the window!
Difference is irrelevant when dosage is higher than recommended!
despite how it may appear, no drugs were used in the making of this tank,
Behold!
THE SHERMAN COLOSSUS!

The Kikka was designed as an attack bomber, and only two were finished by the end of the war. While it was based closely on the Me-262, the exact plans were lost enroute from Germany. So it was somewhat different, as this pic demonstrates.

As a sidemote to Typhoon: I really like your compilation of units for Patine's scenario (particularly the Japanese infantry!), but I suspect you have run into the png problem as well as it all looks a tad dark.
Before begining, I must pay more tribute to your Stuarts:
Done.
Thank you for the comment on the infantry, but the shading was Curt's work, and I merely lifted it. Credit should go to him.
Regarding the .png problem, I'm afraid that the units look dark because they ARE dark. Like Steph I'm also using Firefox as my browser, and they look exactly like that. It could just be my eyes, though.
Bummer about the tutorial . I think its somewhere in this particular thread, around the time you started blessing us with your fantastic TOT coloured units. Maybe we could ask the mods to scrounge it up and move it to the Graphics Workshop where it will be more accessible.
I wonder though- would saving under IE result in the saved png becoming darker? If so, then it would of course be best to use .bmps when handling TOT units. One minor nag though- they don't show up in attachements as you have mentioned.
Couldn't be more right. A common misconception is that the Kikka is an almost 1 for 1 copy for the Me 262 Schwalbe. There a several distinct differences that would be obvious to the discerning observer: For instance, a smaller fuselage that did not taper towards the tail. Internally it was only half the empty weight of the Me 262, had folding wings for storage aboard aircraft carriers and conealment in caves. No guns, and the engines were scaled down versions of the BMW-003.

Credit where it's due - they're a great mod
Enough with the bow-down smilies BTW

That's exactly the problem; I use IE (stupidly!) and I suspect that most others do too. IE darkens the units further; if I click and save your png it will be 10-15% darker than your original. There is a utility for stripping the gamma-correction thingy (Catfish, help: I don't know what I'm talking about ) from png's so that IE displays them correctly. I'll tral back through the thread.
