Erwin Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 "Where did I leave my Polish sausage?" or "Rolf seems really upset that his wife wrote that I slept with her. Wonder if I should move his MG34 away from my groin?" What makes the picture even more interesting is the soldier aiming his rifle in the window to the rear. It screams for more funny captions (I hope). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saferight Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I have no saves for the gun elevation thing. It was the AI on Boldness Be My Brother an he was maneuvering in to position when I noticed his gun slowly continued to turn up. He got lined up to take a shot at my armor but wouldn't shoot. An the flames are Vein's awesome flame mod. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I like the grayscale better than the war movie, but you may need to tinker with the contrast a little. It seems a bit flat in places and to fall off the edge in others. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimmer Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 It's intentionally low contrast and imperfect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 It's intentionally low contrast and imperfect. Why? To try to duplicate the look of frontline photography? Nearly all the photos I have seen have a crisper look. And it is fairly rare that a part of the image is seriously over or under exposed. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimmer Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 The simplest reason is that higher contrast and sharper edges tend to make more obvious the graphical limitations and make the photos look further from reality rather than closer to it, to my eye, at least. Slightly blacker blacks worked in places, but applied universally I was not happy with the result. Even modern silver halide films will tend to blow out the sky without color-correction filtering due to reduced blue sensitivity. All that said, it's obviously personal preference. My photos, my preference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think was trying to take your artistic license away. It all comes down to what you are trying to achieve with the materials at hand. That said, all I said is true too.

Saferight Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Back to the Stielgranate 42 issue with the PAK 36. Perhaps there was a mix up with the 50mm PAK 38 because it fires an mounts the Stick bomb now.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps there was a mix up with the 50mm PAK 38 because it fires an mounts the Stick bomb now.. I think the 50mm always had a 150mm HEAT round... I'm pretty sure I've never used a German 37mm, but I've seen the Steilgranate... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
