Found this on a very cool webpage and will like to know If someone can create this little beauty for me, is a IS-3 hull and a Tiger II turret. Is possible to get the lateral fences too?

Having this pic as a real picture will be the top of the cake.

Why creating it, when there is already an IS-3 hull and a Tiger II turret in the game?

Just open Mobhack, click the IS-3, press F-5, open \Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\WinSPWW2\Game Data\OOBs and rename the just created hullimage.bmp IS-3-hull.bmp.
Then open the german OOB, click the Tiger II, press F-5, rename the turretimage.bmp tiger-turret.bmp and then use ShpEd.

Should be a matter of some minutes.

Cheers

Done.

This was one of the few times when you could get both a good COLOR and B&W LBM.

I went with an octopus camouflage scheme; because it was much easier than an ambush scheme.

EDIT: Base icons were the SPCAMO IS-3 and King Tiger icons in SPWW2.

EDIT II: What website did you find that model on? I'm highly intrigued by it.

Hello Stratos,

just put the shp file to \Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\WinSPWW2\Game Data\Graphics. Then it`s icon number 3498 and 3499. The PM65666 goes to \Shrapnel Games\The Camo Workshop\WinSPWW2\Game Data\Pictures.

Just open Mobhack and create your unit.

Cheers

Thanks a lot!

The model is on Dizzyfugu Flickr page, just search that on Google and you will found a pletora of what if models.
