lennard 447 Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) Hi, With the release of OA and the similarities that Takistan has with Afghanistan, I felt the need for some ANA blokes. So I decided to do them myself instead of posting a request in the request thread. The addon itself will only contain units. Started yesterday so there isn't much to show right now. Most of them will be equipped with M16a2s because atm the real ANA is also converting from the AK to donated surplus M16s right now though some of them will still be equipped with Ak 47s. I will try to put as much variety on the units as possible to make them look "authentic". Here's a very early WIP screen. Cheers.:) Edited July 5, 2010 by Lennard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

r3volution 0 Posted July 2, 2010 Oh you bloody legend!!!! :D Honestly I was looking over the militaryphotos.net on the ANA a couple of months ago in anticipation of Op. Arrowhead coming out and wondering if anyone was going to represent the ANA in OA. This is great news, definitely will add to that Afghan feeling!:D Any plans on representing the new ANA hyperstealth camouflage that the army's switching to as part of their modernisation campaign? Also noticed there are a few photos floating around with ANA soldiers featuring painted helmets but I've only seen a few and that could just be confined to the Commando units. Anyways, this is awesome news, great work!!! :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways, this is awesome news, great work!!! :D Well first I want the regular ANA out, then I'll look into some ANA commandos. About the Hyperstealth camo, well If someone has a tileble image of that particular camo I would happy to add them. The camo is called "Afghan forest" if I'm correct. It's not an easy camo to recreate myself :rolleyes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CommanderYuri 10 Posted July 2, 2010 Really, great work. I am really eager to play them and the Commandos :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r3volution 0 Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) Well first I want the regular ANA out, then I'll look into some ANA commandos. Totally fair, the regular ANA is pretty much what I'd hoped for anyway as they're most of the frontline troops in operations at the moment from what I can see... :) About the Hyperstealth camo, well If someone has a tileble image of that particular camo I would happy to add them.The camo is called "Afghan forest" if I'm correct. It's not an easy camo to recreate myself :rolleyes: Had a poke around the internets, don't know if this or this is any help but its about the best I could find. Anyway, given most of them seem to have the old woodland BDUs its not going to detract from the realism for a while yet. ;) Edited July 2, 2010 by r3volution Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hedo 10 Posted July 2, 2010 Looks nice. Will you add thermal maps to them? (for FLIR) Maybe you could modify those boot models too? I really hate those ArmA1 boots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
