Back to the AA guns departament...
Here is a 25 mm French light AA gun which received the "Multipurpose" treatment. The original icon as a bit improved also...

Also a french gun... Just this was not made multipurpose, as it served only as an AT unit, but I took an image from Steel Panthers game, and used it as a base for a new and slightly better looking icon. Gave it the normal light brown color, and the blue-grey french scheme from the French What if unit pack...

The British Bishop SP Artillery made multipurpose!! The original icon improved a bit, also (made the insignia more visible, mainly). You can grab it in the normal british brown, and a yellow desert scheme. Mask and icons for the DCS are included also!

Enjoy and use at will!

Looking back to air units, I was made some scale calculation of icons in this game. I found that 8 pixels per meter was approximatyely the scale used for fighters and some (smaller) twin engined aircraft. With this data in hand I adjusted a little the Fokker D.XXI and G.I icons (this last one was not released here, but now you have the latest version).
The Fokker D.XXI is still 20% out of scale (9 and a fraction pix per meter) but I dont think I can shrink it more without garbling it, and I like this icon the way it is now!

You can look to two of the icons above, and I include the full pack to download (with base icons and masks for the DCS)

So, update your unit icon database with those!

The G.I can be considered "original" work! I used the image posted here and the P-38 vanilla icon as a guide...
I hope you like it!

Another rare unit for Finland... a 254 mm coastal gun. Used as a base a photo from Steel Panthers game, and some "artistic license" to make the parapet (using the strongpoint PzCorps icon). I hope you like the result. I think it look "PzCorps" enough...
I attach the pach with Finnish icon, generic colors icon, and base icon and mask for DCS. By the way, the icon recived the "multipurpose" treatment, so you have it in direct fire and arty modes!

Last of the wave is a JU-88... Just improved the original game icon a little (made the insignia more visible, mainly) and reskined it in some various ways.

I was thinking about adding SE air units (to complement the concept of the Elite Units mod, which is one of my favs).
I include the Ju-88 icon with the "new" SE schemes, also in desert colors (then again in plain desert and camouflaged "elite" scheme), and the base icons and masks for DCS.

With this SE unts "mod" in mind I came up with two "original" camo schemes:

- One is matched to the green tone used for some artilley units in the elite units mod, and added to it some darker spots...

- The other is similar, but in a grey-bluish color...

Which one would you people like to see? (Or is it both?)

I personally like the green camo

Guille is also boosting the elite unit mod

I also prefer the green camo of the Ju88.

Guille..give me a week (gonna be a busy week at work..they just told me today) and I'm gonna start adding your stuff into the Elite Units

I'll drop you a PM when I'm ready to get all the masks and other stuff you've made.

Guille is on a roll these days. Nice additions

guille1434 · Post by **guille1434** » Sun Apr 07, 2013 4:49 am

Airborne: No problem, ask for the stuff when you are ready and I will send you the whole bunch... Also, tell me what air units you would like to add as SE units in your mod, if you like the idea...

Niki and Bebro: Thenks for the encouraging words!

The green SE air units camo is winning the poll, till now...

In case anyone wanted to put on a map a bigger, tougher fort ico, you can obtain the twin gunned fort... An icon derived from the vanilla game fort. Made in indirect and direct fire modes. I include the "regular" colored icon, another one in Finnish bluish-grey, and Base icons and masks also, for the DCS program. Enjoy!

guille1434 · Post by **guille1434** » Sun Apr 07, 2013 10:27 pm

Some British AT units that were not represented in the game. Made by request of Razz1, here you have:
- British_Piat team.
- British Boys AT team.
- British Paras Piat team.

Enjoy!

A new version of one of my favorite units: the 203 mm M1931 Soviet Howitzer. I used parts from two excellent icons: the one found in Winterkrieg Mod by the DMP Team, and the one made by Kerloc. I think the finished product looks good. I post the rar file containing the icon with different camo schemes, in artillery and direct fire modes, and the base icon and mask also for the DCS software.
I hope you like it!

I was reworking some aircraft icons lately, and I think I improved them a little...
Based on the icon made by Drago (it was the first mod I downloaded for PzCorps, I think), here you have the whole pack of Fi-156 Storches... You can grab the plane with some different camo schemes (desert, European theatre green, SE European, SE desert) and with the base icon and mask to skin it in the scheme of your liking.
Cheers!

This one is a quick work... I found that the stock game B-29 was missing its shadow... So I added it to the original icon, and made the star insignia somewhat more visible. You can just replace the in-game icon with this one, if you like it more.

guille1434 · Post by **guille1434** » Sun Apr 14, 2013 6:52 pm

The Fw-190A improved pack, heavily based on the superb icon made by bebro, you can see this aircraft in basic grey PzCorps color, desert scheme, SE European, SE desert... Base Icons and Mask also included.

guille1434 · Post by **guille1434** » Sun Apr 14, 2013 6:59 pm

The reworked He-111, based on the stock game icon and bebro's... In a variety of schemes, and also with base icon and mask for the DCS.
Enjoy!
