Hmm, tanks... gives me a few ideas, too! 
America: T29
Japan: Type 3 Chi-Nu, Type 95 Ha-Go, Type 1 Chi-He
Italy: P26/40
France: ARL 44
Germany: Panzer I (definitely not a heavy tank!
)
There really aren't too many Japanese tanks out there that I could find, partly why my Pacific scenario has so few.

Gaius Octavius, seems we concur on a few things (Jap and Italian heavy tanks), but I think some things are a little more back-burnerish...
Japan: Type 1 Chi-He (Damn-near physically identical to the Type 97...)
Germany: Panzer I (we already have about 4,327 German tanks, why do we need more?)
DK... here's some pics/links to the Carro P 26/40...

Is that enough images and links for the Carro P26/40?

If you want to suggest an interesting Jap tank, I might suggest the Type 89 Otsu... though I'd still rather see the Type-3 Chi-Nu first.There really aren't too many Japanese tanks out there that I could find, partly why my Pacific scenario has so few.

A reskin of the Jap tank would probably suffice in that case, sort of like the Zero-Oscar syndrome. I never saw many pictures of the Type 1, so I didn't know.
For a rainy day?
Though something tells me if the Germans had as many tanks as we do for Civ 4, the war might have gone a bit differently...

Here's a Type-97 (with new-turret which is what we have in-game)
Here's a Type-1
What I'd like to see is the Type-3

Let's see if you can beat Wyrmshadow's rate.
(Remember to include 256 x 256 textures!)

No way... I never asked for a Type-1... I think it looks too much like a Type-97 (which we already have)... Giaus mentioned wanting a Type-1, but I don't think he realized how similar it is to a Type-97.
What I did want/ask for is the Type-3 Chi-Nu... it has a similar hull to a Type-97/Type-1, but a much larger and brand-new turret.
I also (as previously researched) asked for an Italian Carro P26/40 tank.
If Gaius wants a German tank, I might suggest the Pz-III (any model "E" and above)... it's the only major German tank model we don't have yet.
Oh... and on the subject of Jap tanks and tweaks... you know what? I'm not a fan of redoing existing models, but the Type-97 we do have has the "new" turret (which is bigger)... I'd like to see the OLD/ORIGINAL Type-97 type turret... which is smaller (and more unique)... like this:
If you want to take the original model and redo the turret (or start from scratch, whichever is easier), I'd be fine with that... or heck... make a Type-95 Ha Go tank... cute little buggers.
As you can see... there's still plenty of good WWII tanks which haven't been done yet... and with Smitty gone, the void is still big in tank-making model makers.

Just ideas I'm tossing out there... right now, my two favorites would be the Type-3 and Carro P26/40.

I don't know if you guys understand... I didn't just want "any German tank" (or any other tank from any other civ, for that matter). I had something in mind for the specific ones I requested. Now as for the two Japanese tanks, a reskin will do so long as they look sufficiently different to distinguish in game, but for the others models will probably be required. Maybe I could even attempt this myself with a little texture editing, but I have not mastered that just yet.
I don't care what order they're done in, so if DK wants to do the Italian/Hungarian/Austrian/Blahblahblah tanks first, that's fine.

Hey DK
Looks like you haven't updated your list on Post #1 since April 20. Still making models??

Didn't you have a B17 unit? I didn't see it listed among your other air unit creations in Post #1...

Unfortunately, dutchking and GeneralMatt have both not made anything in weeks. GeneralMatt hasn't even been on in over a month, and dutchking has been busy I guess. We've (temporarily, I hope) lost two of our best unit artists.

I still don't understand why Matt can't access the forum... I've e-mailed him, but just don't get why he can't connect.Unfortunately, dutchking and GeneralMatt have both not made anything in weeks.

Tell him to e-mail Thunderfall about it if he still can't log on. I gave him the link to that proxy that was set up back when they'd moved the site to a different server, but I don't know if it still works.

He says the proxy isn't even working anymore.
