Special Winter GV's for the Budapest FSO
« on: June 27, 2023, 04:57:35 PM »
In addition to Greebo's Soviet halftracks and the Su-85 skin for Jagdpanther, I have also two winter GV skins for this event. Neither is eligible for the MA, so they will only be available on the DanubeW terrain.

First up is a M4A3/76W Sherman operated by the 9th Guards Mechanized Corps. This unit was equipped with Shermans via Lend-Lease and used them in the Hungarian campaign and the subsequent operations in Austria and Czechoslovakia.

This skin was created by combining the files of two existing M4A3/76W skins by Fencer. I simply overlayed the US winter scheme over the Soviet one and erased the the areas above the Soviet markings. I also did some minor touch ups to the whitewash on the turret hatches and added new specular maps to eliminate the super shine.






Finally, this Ostwind was created by modifying the original default skins and making copy of the Panzer yellow sections in white to act as a white wash. Just a little creative erasing of the white on high wear areas to blend it all together. Also has new specular maps to eliminate the super shine.
Note, I can't take in-game screenshots with this skin until the Danube terrain is updated with the special default skins.

Very nice job on modding the files to make these skins Devil.
