Tiger Posted August 5, 2000 Share Posted August 5, 2000 This is my new one, updated 8-6-2000 More decking detail, darker tone factory coating, less paint "spray" effect. There is nothing you can do about seeing the hull crewmember at groundlevel 1. The original model is like this too. -Tiger [This message has been edited by Tiger (edited 08-06-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Posted August 5, 2000 Author Share Posted August 5, 2000 It's been up a couple days but I didn't have the game, just the bmps so I had no screenshots. Guess what came in the mail today http://www.negia.net/~jshki/FirstTiger.zip This is my new paint job from the picture above with various fixes. 8-6-2000 -Tiger [This message has been edited by Tiger (edited 08-06-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCHEN PEIPER Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 Im sorry but it looks as if someone has just vomited on this tank... I liked your other stuff better... Sorry but this just don't do it for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TURBO Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 Glad to here you got the game. I think you should use the same brown you used on the panther and also do the bogies,IMO. Other than that looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BasilD Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 Did they have spray paint back then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TURBO Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 BasilD Sure did, although all camo patterns were not sprayed on. I have even read where they used mops brooms or whatever was on hand to apply camo patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 I think you need to bring out the surface details a little more. Show the vent openings and the engine deck details. Outline the hatches and tool racks etc. I wish that I could do this kind of thing, but the only paint program I have is the one that comes with Windows. I studied painting and drawing in college and have built many a model tank. Keep up the good work. ------------------ Blessed be the Lord my strength who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 I dont think the germans even used this colour scheme or did they????? ------------------ "Some people don't see the light until they first feel the heat" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 I actually like it a lot. It doesn't have the engine decking detail etc of the shipped model but the colour tones are nice ( and yes, they did have spraypaint back then AND they also often used mops, rags etc to apply paint... Hell, they even sometimes used water-based paints so that when it rained the colours ran..) Anyways, problem. Go down to view 1 and look at the side of the tank... You didn't paint as far down as you should have as near as I can see... I can see a crewman in the middle of the tank I shouldn't be able to see. That needs to be fixed. And, for the record, this looks much more like a modern Leopard 2 and M1 camo pattern than a WW2 German tank camo pattern but I like it as is.. I've always thought that some of the Leo 2 patterns were the most beautiful camo patterns ever painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanir Posted August 6, 2000 Share Posted August 6, 2000 Thats some real nice looking camo, but you need to make the changes Wayne and Fionn mentioned. Do that and post it here and I'll use it for sure. [This message has been edited by Vanir (edited 08-06-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Posted August 6, 2000 Author Share Posted August 6, 2000 I've redone the camo job entirely from scratch and left in alot more detail showing. Paint doesn't look as "sprayed on". The picture, above, is the new one. As far as the crew showing inside the interior at ground level, this is also present in the model that came with the game, and is a model defect, nothing to do with the paint job. The new one has been uploaded for public consumption. Oh, and Jochen Peiper, you have the manners of a goat. -Tiger [This message has been edited by Tiger (edited 08-06-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fionn Posted August 7, 2000 Share Posted August 7, 2000 Ah, much better. And about the crewman comment.. Hmm, I hadn't noticed it before.. Pity about that. Anyways, I like this version a lot too and have replaced my in-game Tiger with this mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
