Hi Guys

Hope a camouflaged Leopard 2 A4 is useful for some scenmakers, i did'nt like the old olive one...

[Pablostuka]

Thanks, guys, I'll take a look at that

Mmm, Hans...this baby rocks!

[typhoon]

I know I'm really exhausting the patience of the good unit creators here, but would someone please try this baby?

Also, Tom Clancy told a story in his book about tanks. It happened in Gulf War I. An M1 got stuck in some thick mud, so the rest of its group kept going (they were on a mission). And who showed up but three (3) T-72s. The M1 took out all three without a hit to it at all. The last T-72 fled behind a barn, and the M1 shot through it and wiped it out. They later dug the M1 out.

It is worth noting that the T-72 models in Iraqi service were called "monkey models" by their creators. Also they were in poor service (especially their barrels which were designed to be replaced every 100 or so shots). The real thing from ex-Soviet service or still in FSU service is a great deal better.

Nice one, Hans!!!

Thanks Curt & Pablos

And here's is a camouflaged Marder I A3.

I added the extra armour panele to the sides as the real Marder I A3 has it.

The commander sits besides the gun and not at the Drivers Position

Also added the real rubber side skirts and the 5 man PzGren Squad ( Actually it's 6 man but the commander stays in the Marder most of the time ).

Tell me what you think of the 5 man Squad and if a Milan III would look better on the Marder ( German Pzgren Platoons actually have 2 MilanIII's aka 5 Missiles per Milan III, but it often is mounted besides the 20mm Rh 202 Main gun ).

Great units Hans! Keep em' coming

[Pablostuka]

Hans! This is an excellent Marder!!

What about this camo pattern for your Leopard 2 A4?

[curtsibling]

With Hans, I think we have a fine new unit artist here!

[Case]

Hans, with just a few minor tweaks, I've converted your camo pattern into what an Australian Leo 2 would probably look like: (with and without air-recognition panels)

[Catfish]

Fairline's Leopard 2A3 sure has undergone some treatment in the last week or so. I'd recommend Hans99's camo version for Pablostuka's scenario - nice job, Hans.

I was experimenting with PSP 8 on the same unit recently. Using the Retouch Brushes, I created a few camouflage patterns. With the exception of the first tank, none of the patterns below are meant to represent any kind of reality - they're just tests.

All are 24-bit colour units for ToT.

(BTW, a special thanks to TPG, my ISP, for taking a huge sh1t on me, three times whilst trying to post this. )

[Nilat]

Nice units!

[fairline]

Nice work Catfish and Hans

Catfish: I'd say that first one is a pretty good rendition of Pablo's Spanish camo scheme. Now, tell me about these retouch brushes....

[Pablostuka]

Wow, Catfish...they are looking pretty good !! Definaltely, I will use the first of your Leopards

[Pablostuka]

Damn...If I paste it into my Units.gif...it looks like crap...all the colors change. And If I load the Civ2 palette before pasting, all the colors change...Does anyone knows how to convert it into a 256 color gif without color changes? :dknow:

Thanks
