Uf, I expend more time looking for Sicilian tank markings than making the mod itself,...There are tons of references for Eastern front, but finding a Sicilian based Panzer or Stug is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

You can fudge it a little. No one who plays this game is a real stickler for accuracy. And thanks for the beautiful work you have done.

Do you have Panzers in Italy 1943-1945 by Tom Cockle (Armor at war Series)? It has tons of pics of German stuff in Sicily and Italy. If not, send me an email.

Fuser,

AFV-G2 magazine (Targeted search for Italy & Sicily only)

Issue with Panzer IV/H in Italy. Page 10. Full camo & marking details

http://www.scribd.com/doc/105577440/1970-AFV-G2-Volume-2-No-1

Issue with Panzer IV/H at Anzio. Page 20 Same info as above.

AFV-G2 collection. I've gone through every issue here in the same targeted search. If you keep hitting Load More, it'll show more pieces of this online grogfest. I believe the series on Waffen SS markings and Markings Guide for Serious Modelers may be of direct interest to you as well.

These may help. They're all for Italy. Camo & markings! The main site has all kinds of goodies.

The Flames of War site has several articles on camouflage and markings for units in Italy, including the Italians.

Assigned U.S. camouflage paint colors for Sicily and Italy.

Books

George Bradford's Armor Camouflage & Markings North Africa should be of considerable assistance.

Pretty sure he covered Sicily and Italy, too.

Two visual reference books specifically covering Panzers in Italy

Panzer Wrecks (Italy, Eins)

http://www.panzerwrecks.com/pw9info.html

Panzer Wrecks (Italy, Part Deux)

http://www.panzerwrecks.com/pw13i

There's a series of books called Armour Colour Gallery: Camouflage & Markings of.. in which whole volumes are devoted to specific units in Italy. Here's the first one. Toggle from there via Next button.

Am going to stop now.

Fuser,

First off I would like to say Thanks for everything that you have done to make this game more visually appealing to my eyes. Excellent work.

Second would you happen to have a Dropbox folder that you would share with a collection of all your mods? Yes. I am too lazy to download all of them individually. If you had a public folder in DB you could just upload as you pump them out.
