AndrewTF Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 Ok, I try to be humble, but I just have to say that this is perhaps my Best Uniform Mod Ever. Actually it's only a revision of my earlier Feldgrau Heer mod, but I really think it has that "late war" grungy look. I took the one that I posted earlier, darkened and desaturated it a bit, and this is what I ended up with: Pretty cool, eh? I replaced the scarf with this groovy looking sweater, which really, I think, makes the mod. Yeah, I know, Dorosh--the sweater should be a v-neck. Think of it as a present from Oma or Mutti sent to little Otto or Klaus at the front. Besides, I added the subdued gray chest eagle just for you [Edited for stupidity] [ February 02, 2002, 03:06 AM: Message edited by: AndrewTF ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey --- at least they don't look like French sailors in disguise anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runyan99 Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 Hmmm. Looks good! I am addicted to DD's old camo-smock Heer, but I will give this mod a try too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WineCape Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 Andrew, I assume you are working very hard on your CMMOS v3.1 version of the SAP uniform mods? Awaiting your handiwork!

Fairbairn-Sykes Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 I, for one, happen to like British Commandos in disguise. Anyway, I really dig the grimey, late war feel and the sweaters, Andrew. This one's a keeper. Now... about a cable knit pullover mod for Lord Lovat's Commandos...

Hensworth Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 Great work on the uniforms. Sadly it sets off those ugly lumps they've got for hands even more. Is there nothing that can be done about that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that would be me. I'll have to add this one to the mix as well. Nice work as always, Andrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Hofbauer Posted February 2, 2002 Share Posted February 2, 2002 Originally posted by Warmaker: What's that emblem above the left breast pocket?Looks like a Nahkampfspange. Looking good Andrew TF! Where to get it? But why are the K 98k - equipped riflemen having MP40 mag pouches? Shouldn't they have the small ammo pouches for the Mauser clips? Are you making this mod for all those gamey bastards who use SMG troops ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewTF Posted February 4, 2002 Author Share Posted February 4, 2002 Originally posted by Michael Dorosh: Love the eagle. The chicken wire is too small and North American looking though ... Interesting choice, re: the scalloped pocket flaps, indicating pre 1943 production. Any paticular reason, or just artist's fancy? Looking good.[/QB]This better? The M1942 scalloped pockets are there because the best image I found on the Web to apply to the mod was of that particular tunic. I tried working one up from scratch but I could never get it to look right. Besides, it looks cooler than the squared-off pocket. P.S. before anyone asks, that's a tricolor camo painted helmet mod. I will release wire-covered and plain versions of that BMP, as well as the two different versions of the plain helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we have a non-grenade option?Whattaya think this is--Burger King? You can't have it your way! I dig the grenade, and it's my mod, so it stays. Seriously, modders revolve around their egos, so if you want a particular special version of a mod you do have to work a little harder. There are two basic approaches: 1. The begging, ego-stroking approach: "Golly, that's the bestest mod I've EVER seen!!! AndrewTF, you are a GENIUS. You would, however, be elevated to demi-god level if you did a grenadeless version, as I think such a mod would befit your greatness. Pretty please?" 2. The Über-Grog "Micheal Dorosh" approach: "Nice mod, but you DO know that that particular model of grenade was issued only in small numbers to the 1019345rd Waffen-SS Übersturmhamster regiment stationed in Riga, Latvia until it was recalled to...blah, blah, blah. Maybe you should do a version with no grenade or maybe a couple egg grenades." But, as I am a magnanimous individual, I will consider doing a grenadeless version.
