Good day, all

I have tried, and have failed, to create useable Icons for the Entwicklung Series. My artistic abilities suck. Has anybody done so? Or can cobble some together?

I can offer OOB Mods to cover them, that kind thing I’m good at.

I’m looking for an icon for a “What if” German APC fully tracked 13 troop capacity with a small gun turret as well

Thanks,

A view of the top and a good set of dimensions is critical - a three view is gold. If you have either of those I can put something together.

Good day Pat

Had to go awy suddenly, give me some time, the views should be doable.

Hi,

I messed around a bit with what-if german APCs.

One idea was a "stretch" SdKfz 251/1 with an armored roof and SdKfz 234/1 turret with a 2cm KwK 38 autocannon and coax MG34.

I also made an icon for the "Kitten" and APC variant of the Hetzer.

Finally, the post war HS30 APC makes a good "what-if" APC. I gave it a late-war style camo scheme, and use the SdKfz 234/1 turret.

I've attached a folder with the icons.

Good day again, SGTGunn

Very nice work, I especially liked the stretched 251, I'm hoping to use it for may AH OOB as the SzPzw 3 Rommel. I've seen drawings and a model of one, your rendition fits the bill. Your other work like the Kitten and M26 APC etc was great too.

I was wondering if you had any problems lining up the turret when bring it in to the game?

Just go to the Winspmbt TO&E files section and look around there. I have done a load of E-series icons. (Das Reich) is the post you should look at first. I will post a load of stuff up soon, some re-jigging of the icons was needed.

DL'd your fine artwork, very nice E10 & E20 creations. I was equally impressed with the rest. Of course the other half of the fun is putting them in to my OOB's. Thank you again. Love this game.

Prosit!!

Good Day RM

Well, I'm well and truly blown away, Bravo Zulu on a job well done. Love the work you've put into all these, but especially the Paper Panzers and even AH aircraft. I know what I'm doing this weekend, to have them deployed soonest.

Thanks again. Prosit! Bob

Glad you like them. I am thinking of producing an ,,Alligator" (E-100 with two Flak 88s) soon as well as some other missing vehicles

Did some german paper panzers for fun.
Panzerkampfwagen E-100 and Jagdpanzer E-100 Krokodil both in 3 different schemes.
I used some bits of oragus panther 2 for the after deck, the mg-34 and the front hatches. The intent here was just to have some commonality.


P.S.: Monty, you can include them in your mod if you have a use for them.

Best Regards,

Yes, very nice indeed. I shall be using them. You don't mind if I make some slight alterations do you. I have made a winter (complete) icon and have made one with camo too. I will be working hard tommorow on the rest of them. When I am finished I will post them up for you. With Pierre's permission of course.

So Pierre, just PM if you have any questions or qualms.

PanzerBob,

Hey sorry I never got back to you on your question - I left home for my mobiliaztion station (and on to Iraq) they day of your post, and I haven't been back to this forum since (been busy ~_^ ). I don't recall having a problem with lining up the turret, but unfortunately my laptop bit the dust over here, and when I bought a new one, I didn't have my winSPWW2 install disk with me (luckily I did have winSPMBT one!) so I can't check.

Hey Sarge, Not a problem, deployment has got to be the best reason I've heard for a non responce. Certain one I understand. Some of your great work and some of others great work have made it in to my X Project OOB's. Sure make the whole effort pleasing to the eye.

If you're still over there, keep your head down and your powder dry. Thanks again,and Thanks for your service,Soldier

Good luck over there Sarge.

Panzer Bob, have you seen my latest icons for the E-100 and E-90 yet or not? They are the last in the series of icons in my "Das Reich" post. I completely re-did those icons using Pierre's as templates. If you liked them before you will love them now.

Howdy RM,

Very nice, and with the winter/desert as well. Could have used the desert camo as I'm in the Sinai now. Some of these will be in my next update for sure. Hopefully this evening I'll be posting my first AAR this year, resuming my AH campaign.

Again many Thanks.
