Tiger Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 The "weathered" allied tanks are posted over at Madmatt's Combat HQ site, and I've already begun retooling to produce better versions with highlights, shadows, sharper image quality over the previous. Don't ask, give me a couple days Here's a sneak peek: since I have a few days off I'll have plenty of time to work on these sharper ones. -johnS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Do any of you see a strange resemblance between the Cromwells and the "Tigers" in Saving Private Ryan? ------------------ Blessed be the Lord my strength who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight.

The SPR Tigers were based on the Russian T34 Chassis. Mace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSXR1100G Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Actually they look like the Tigers in Kelley's Heroes which look like M551 Sheridan chassis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rob/1 Posted August 22, 2000 Share Posted August 22, 2000 Why change the look of allied tanks you can't make them look any better. They where only good because there were so many of them if the Germans had that many tanks they would have made the war go on for at lest two months longer than it did. ------------------ Check out my CM web page! www.geocities.com/robisme_ca/Combat1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSXR1100G Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Rob,that would be nice up to the beginning of 44 but after that equipment wasn't the only problem.You need crews for these tanks.The Russians had huge numbers of tanks.Supposedly good tanks.You can argue all day about how good each nations equipment is.But the finished product includes crew and command.

Guest Germanboy Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Mace: I rest my case! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> At the military museum in Berlin-Karlshorst (well worth a visit, bu only if you enjoy pictures, or speak either Russian or German) they have Russian military equipment from the war outside. couple of guns, some tanks. I was quite surprised how small the T-34 is in reality. ------------------ Andreas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSXR1100G Posted August 23, 2000 Share Posted August 23, 2000 Cool.They did a great job.But what about the Tigers from Kelley's Heroes.Are they the same ones?The Tigers from KH are fresher in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
