Been working some on ISU-122. Now it's time for some sleep.

I want those trees now as well. Great looking trees!

It's no problem. I'm glad to see it being hosted on other pages too.

I modded it a bit, but it's almost default looking one. I did think about it for a moment, that do i put it in or not. It's there now though. I haven't looked much into these machineguns textures, that do they share same machinegun textures with some other tanks or is there seperate machinegun textures for each tank, that has machineguns on them.

Alrighty then!

Haven't looked into it yet. Never used it before. I'll look into it now. Having some problems to access there. Sent mail to gordon. Hopefully soon i can access there. [ November 01, 2002, 03:05 PM: Message edited by: SAMi V ]

I had to take a little break. That's why it took this long.

Here it is now! Click here to download! Forgot to mention, that if someone wants to host this, then just go ahead. I did send mail to Tom's Combat Mission HQ and asked if they want to host it. [ November 01, 2002, 01:53 PM: Message edited by: SAMi V ]

Tulee ihan just pian.

That is Ladungsleger auf Panzerkapfwagen I Ausf B and that one on the pic is version Plate 67. There is one other version of this called Plate 68 which had this slide at the rear to deposit a charge. This Plate 67 has a cable-operated arm which pivoted over the tank to place the 50kg charge behind the vehicle. So yes, it's a demolition charge-laying tank to clear paths (defences & obstacles) for assaulting troops.

And more updates again. I never started to make those stripes, but today i did managed to make something new on it. I added brackets for the spare track on the front lower hull and edited some of those hooks as well. One bracket is missing there. It has fallen off. hehe Here's 3 pics. It's almost finished now. All i can think of what to edit is that red star which i want to make look different. Not much though. I might do the stripes version later after i have released this no stripes & no slogan version. Don't know do i even make any slogan one. Just stripes one. Anyways, should be done soon, unless i found something else what to improve on it. I will host this file when it's done, but anyone is free to host it as well. [ October 23, 2002, 04:56 PM: Message edited by: SAMi V ]

Fixed it some. Maybe it's a bit dark still on the lower sideshull or maybe those dark tracks just makes it darker. In game it's a bit brighter. I work on it later. Need to take a break now.

Time for little update. I gave more dirt/dust look to it and remade the whole wheels and suspensions and what everything there is on the tracks part. I think they look better now. A bit too dark on the wheels/tracks part though.. or is it?? Next i'll make the stripes and need to work on that red star too.

I second to that. I tryed the demo earlier for awhile. Even tryed it twice, but that was enough for me.

Been working on this one a little bit today. Added a shovel there on the side. Wow! hehe This pic is funny. Tank crew stuck under the bogged down tank. hehe To Captain Wacky: I don't think it would take that long to apply this dirt scheme to all russian tanks, since i have the scheme done already, but i dont know would it look that good, if all the tanks looked pretty much the same. Anyways, i got invited to join to this list called "the Pig Pen" which gordon molek has started which tryes to coordinate a set of "dirty" mods for CM:BB. I joined and hopefully in the end we have a complete set of dirty vehicles and not all identical looking either.

Nice. I will be checking these. I see you have started to work on KV-2. Cool! I worked on it as well a little while when is started modding, but i moved on to IS series. I used the same logo on it as well. It's looking good.

Started to work on ISU-152 earlier today. I'm using the same scheme as i did on the IS series. I don't know yet do i start making any stripe & slogan version of this. I do add some logos and stuff there like i already have added. I added that light and horn(?) i think it's a horn. Sure looks like it on the pics. Anyways, i haven't seen that many pics of ISU-152 that it has even had red stars on them. I have only searched from the internet for pics. I do see from these pics i have found that ISU-152 has carried a spade and a pickaxe on its sides, so maybe i'll add one of those.

Yes, i know what you mean. I guess i now have to mod them all to this same scheme.

Just wanting to say thanks to you all for the feedback and suggestions. I just released this, so go grab it. http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=23;t=002200 I hope you all like it.

OK. Here it is finally. Now also other version without the slogan and stripes!!! If someone wants to host these files then just go ahead and host. ---> Click to download slogan & stripe version! <--- ---> Click to download plain version! <--- I hope you all like it.

Okay. I made the stripe a tiny bit darker. How it fits now? Any better?

I dont know if making that mud lighter tone would have helped. I didn't try that, but i did take it off. hehe Or more like i made it darker now, so it wont show up like rust anymore. That rust look does spoil it. Have to practise more how to make mud look goooood on a tank. hehe Not on this tank anymore i think. Maybe on some other one.

maybe to something like this? Russians used these armor shields attached on skis. I dont know did finns use them, when/if they got these captured from the russians. But i dont think you can go that fast with it, unless you are going downhill.

Changed color scheme a bit on the tank and fixed that floating stripe problem or what to call it. Now if i only can get that slogan done then it's all ready. How it looks now?

Yes. I think you are right there, Eden Smallwood. Too much dirt on the wheels part. I need to decrease the opacity of the dirt on them and see how it turns out. Then about the floating stripe you mentioned. Actually it is not floating. It's just a bit more up than the one on the front. I tryed to make it go at the same height as it is on front of the turret, but in my opinion it went too low on the back of the turret. That didn't look too good. Well, i need to go get some rest now and later on i edit the dirt part on the wheels and so on. Hopefully i have it all done soon. Thanks for the feedback. Keep it coming.
