Ares,

i really enjoy watching this thread grow

i also think it's great that you posted a RL picture of the units for easy comparisons.

you're carving quite a niche for yourself here young man. keep up the great work!

 

[Wyrmshadow]

I may build my own Oliphant on my Centurion chassis. Btw, the Konigstiger you have previewed is the Porche turret while ripptide only made the Henshel turret. I did both for SOEv5.

 

[Ares de Borg]

Good to hear. Have you decided which version of the Oliphant you're going to do? It would be cool if you did the Mk.1B or the Mk.2 so our tanks could roam the savanna together.

About the Tiger: I told Gorn already that my conversion is only meant to be a temporary replacement before SOE comes out. I had a look at the Tiger you previewed and it looks really great.

 

[Goldflash]

So, I'm glad you made an Oliphant. Its a unit I've wanted but never requested. Yay for saving me work!

 

[Roman Legion]

can you make a color conversion of a unit, and put it in ACU, or would ACU be impossible to make, on civ scale?

 

[Ares de Borg]

I think ACU would look just grey at Civ scale.

 

[Roman Legion]

yeah, I kinda thought that might happen, I might try it later, it probably will not work good. BTW do you like my new avatar, or was my old one better?

I really appreciated all your color conversions: they really look as brand new units.
I was wondering if you can add to your list a superb M2 unit by Aaglo (thread). It is a wonderful units but the camo won’t fit with other modern infantry unit, like the famous by Balou (thread), so teaming them looks not very nice. I think it’s worth either to repaint aaglo M2 team in standard light green or (why not?) to repaint Balou’s infantry in a camo like the M2 team
I hope you may find time to deal with this request. Anyway, thanks for what you already done. (…and terrains too!)

 

[Ares de Borg]

Thanks Wolf. I'm sorry that I haven't done your F-14 yet. I've got lots of work for university atm, and several projects half-finished. So I hope I'll get to your request some day.

 

[grafix]

your'e camo conversions really rocks..specially those leopard series..i really love tanks..anyway is there any chance that the russian black eagle tank done by ripptide can be camo converted like your'e leopard strv122 camo..i know your'e quite busy because of your'e terrain project..

 

[Ares de Borg]

Hi guys, I've got a really busy RL at the moment and I'm sorry that some things take longer than expected. I'm not gone and my projects will be finished - it will take some time, though.

For my terrain set: I've restarted work and made progress. It's not too much left to do. You'll see.

UPDATE February 16th, 2007:

Added the Sheridan. Updated the Leopard 1.

 

[Ares de Borg]

Just read in the news that Canada wants to buy 40 Leopard 2s from Germany. You can use my Canadian L2 now and it's even historically correct. ;-)

 

[Red Door]

You mean it wasn't historically correct before?


Whoops.

 

[Ares de Borg]

It was already correct to use it as C2 (upgraded L1) and now it's even correct to use it as L2.

 

[Stormrage]

So what do you Germans call the tank officers anyway.. Beastmasters?

 

[Ares de Borg]

Update for you guys. I'm starting a Commonwealth series.

First are the M4 Sherman (or "Grizzly", as it was called in Canada) and the M10 Achilles.

Enjoy! Download and preview on the first page!
