Great job Kazan, nice to see another GV skin.

Out of curiosity do you know why the tank name is in German, or is it Polish?

Nice :aok
I remember looking at this unit before thinking it was a shame no one was skinning the Sherman.

Chinese? Also have some New Zealand Shermans if interested.





This link has the info on this Chinese unit.
Also has a tank that I have never found better images of called Fight or Frolic.

Very nice looking skin Kazan.

I also like lyric1's suggestion about a Chinese skin for the Sherman.

I am guessing this is the photo the prior profile & the model cover below is based off.

I tend to like seeing the smaller participants in WWII be included with skins.
So another New Zealand tank with a desert pink camo :headscratch:
Plus for you Kiwis the pink will suite you.
Had to go there as an Australian. :D





One for the Brazilians as well.
