Aeneas2020 10 Posted November 17, 2009 I'm working on some brit special forces right now but i'd be more than happy to help out with any texturing on a part time basis if you'll have me. I can provide past project resume materials if needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRexian 0 Posted November 17, 2009 I've had a hand in making some configs lately, and am interested in learning more about them. I'd be willing to help out with those, if you don't mind some mistakes along the way from me. :) (And, if the modelers/skinners don't mind indulging a couple requests from me along the way.) ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kamping-killoch 16 Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) Hey, I worked on a repeating camo pattern based on the Irish pattern awhile back. It is just blank colour, not as huge as i would have liked but should be able to scale up at least a bit. I put it together myself from 3 different sample images, blanked the texturing and stregnthend the colours. The edges are not 100% perfect but it's definatly servicable if you want it.

Aeneas2020 10 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) WIP Irish (i guess special forces) working on regular inf also atm... have the desert guys done also but not configged yet....also please note they are not using the steyr in this pic yet. http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFSFTEMP1g.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFSFTEMP1e.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFSFTEMP1d.jpg hmm for some reason the pic quality on the 1st image sucks...ill get a better shot later. Also tried to give these guys a little bit of a faded in the field look after looking at some pics of new irish uniforms and then some of guys who had been in chad for a long time they seemed pretty sun bleached.

slatts 1978 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) Looking fantastic. :D I know someone who's excited...ain't that right, blink? hehe. ;) hehe ohhh yeah i think this deserves a nissan patrol http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm180/guitaro-man/nissan.jpg Edited November 26, 2009 by Slatts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeneas2020 10 Posted November 27, 2009 Blink you might want to see if you can change the name of the thread to something more descriptive like "Irish Defence Force Mod" instead of IDF mod plan...a) IDF can stand for a lot of things, b) mod plan makes it sound like an inactive request thread as opposed to a WIP. Anyway some more updates here. Regular Inf: http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFDay3INFa.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFDay3INFc.jpg SF: http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFDay3SFa.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m140/Aeneas2020/IDFDay3SFc.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) looking fantastic changed the title EDIT: eh? still the same ah wolle did :D woo Edited November 27, 2009 by Slatts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kamping-killoch 16 Posted November 29, 2009 Hey, mod looks great so far. If you'll accept a bit of CC though, I think the uniforms are a little too washed out. Until they're in a really extreme case of wear the colours usually maintain good contrast. Example ( A little blurry but you get the idea ) Another Example Other than that it all looks really good. Are there any plans to add extra pouches or anything to the standard infantry. Guys in the DF seem to carry a lot of equipment around their plate carriers, front and back ( you can kind of see that in the first photo ) Oh and dont forget the helmet webbing ( and black boots ) :bounce3::bounce3: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aeneas2020 10 Posted November 29, 2009 I've got those pics...the camo is WIP until we get some models finished up. Thanks though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted November 29, 2009 yea as aeneas said once out modeller comes back from holidays ,we should have infantry out soon enough finishing up the basic lod's and making wheels and lights work on the nissan patrol so aeneas fantasic units will have some transport,and his SF rangers will have some vehicles fire power hopefully ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furburt 10 Posted November 29, 2009 lookin damn good. I used to be in the army myself, theres a couple of details you have to get right to make the uniforms less 'american' but otherwise looking good. If you can get Steyr AUG A3's with the piccanty rails for the Rangers that would also be great. And finally, if you can get proper DPM pattern camo and the RBH303IE helmet I will be positively ecstatic. Dilis go Bráth, as my old Battalion used to say.

slatts 1978 Posted November 30, 2009 dont worry the models are being changed that is the irish dpm and rbh303 and yea,steyrs are hard to get, more so with the A3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kamping-killoch 16 Posted November 30, 2009 Are you making a cutaway version of the nissan patrols? Rangers seem to enjoy tank large chunks off their vehicles and ( I assume ) eating them. Oh dear... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furburt 10 Posted November 30, 2009 Are you making a cutaway version of the nissan patrols?Rangers seem to enjoy tank large chunks off their vehicles and ( I assume ) eating them. Oh dear... Rangers do love customizing things. The arrogant bastards. But if you are going to include teh Rangorz , you might want to include their alternate uniforms for hostage rescue and such Combine-esque anyone? Don't forget the Hk33 for the Rangers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slatts 1978 Posted November 30, 2009 that "nissian" is a ford F350 :P dunno about those CTU rangers,they are more internal i think,they wouldnt wear them in chernorus for example (if it were real :P ) i think id rather a L96A1 or AW .50 for a ranger sniper,or a steyr with elclan for a marksman (yes we use elclans now) little update, WE HAVE AUGS! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furburt 10 Posted November 30, 2009 WE HAVE AUGS! :D Is it the FFAA ones? If you forget to include the A3's I shall be very annoyed :D. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
