AndrewTF Posted October 10, 2001 Share Posted October 10, 2001 Oops, sorry, I meant to say MINOR mod announcement. Well, it did get your attention, didn't it? I've done some work improving the pants for the German army uniform pack, adding details like buckles to the gaiters. I also made a pretty cool looking pair of splinter camo trousers that can be combined with the existing splinter camo mod or used like so: "For the Fatherland" my butt! "For the hills" is more like it. That's what I get for buying green troops... The inspiration for the camo pants was a trip to the Godforsaken realm known as "Toys-R-Us" to buy a gift for my spoiled neice. While the wife was busy comparing various annoying electronic "educational" pres-school toys I managed to slip away and found myself in the "action figures" section where I discovered, among other things, an angry-looking Wehrmacht GI-Joe type action figure with this get-up. They also had a fab 1/18 scale (!) Panther tank that my wife wouldn't let me buy Guess I'll just have to go back when she's not with me and find a place to hide something that big. I wish they had toys like that when I was I kid, although I doubt my parents would have ever bought me a Panther tank for Xmas... I've also made a pair of olive drab HBT fatigue pants for the US 44 infantry. I did steal the gaiter part of the texture from Maximus' mod of my original mod. You must own the previously released Super Action Packs 1, 2, and 4 to use these mods. Batteries not included. As soon as I get my computer unpacked at home (I just moved) I'll send them to the usual suspects.

Clubfoot Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 I actually got that 1/18 scale panther you referred to. My ol'lady bought it for my B-Day this year. It comes in a nifty tri-color camo w/ many functioning hatches, functional tracks and road wheels, swivelling turret, elevating gun, tow cables, tool sets, spare track on hull, and a Rommel lookin' TC. They also have a bitchin' 1/18 scale Kubelwagen w/ driver, and 1/32 scale armored car w/ 3man crew. Go get that Panther! Damn the torpedoes!

Sitzkrieg Posted October 11, 2001 Share Posted October 11, 2001 Very nice job again, Andrew. Best uniforms a CMer can get. Måkjager, You posted some pics of some Panther mods you were working on a while ago. "Hasty" camo for Panther A was one of them I remember. Any progress on those? They looked very nice.

There was a really nice Panther A done in a "hasty" camo scheme that Makjager previewed at one time. Kinda looked like a mod Gordon did for the PzIV.

AndrewTF Posted October 11, 2001 Author Share Posted October 11, 2001 One more thing--I kind of feel that I've run out of uniform mods to do. Any suggestions? I was thinking of doing reed-green HBT summer uniforms for the Germans, and maybe Afrika Korps and British desert uniforms. Is there anything anyone really wants to see? I'm taking requests for a limited time only... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how good they are in the CM2, they'll most likely not be as high res as some of us are used to. You might as well get the research done, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find it kind of hard to get that worked up about the Eastern Front, although this probably won't prevent me from buying (and playing and modding) CM:BB.
