well, i want to make a nice set of axis sleeves but i am not a very good skinner at all, but i thought i would still give it a go, i slightly edited the old sleeve model just tgo give it a different shape and look.

It is only lightly based on the real axis sleeves but im not going for something 100% historically accuarate, im going for something which looks good :/ the colours, i believe, are similar to that of some of the german uniforms

lol, it looks like a hippy's tie-dye t-shirt.

Maybe darken it a little or use different colors?

Acid flash back!

Looks good so far mate but were the colours really that bright?

Maybe make the colors mat or flatter, so they dont look shiney, unless your gonna make a hippie player model for it too....

well i have made quite a few changes, and added several different camo patterns (supposedly of the SS). If people think they are good enough, i will release them for use on any model :)

get a new host, its slow as molasas.

On and those last too screens are much better.

But whats with the blue part on screen4?
I like screen 3 colours the most. But screen4, sleeves are much sharper.

slow, but free and high bandwidth ;)

the blue parts are from this camo, its a real one they actually used, i didnt just make it up, but i cant find the original ref pic i used. i see what you mean though, it does look outta place a bit. i will replace the blue with some of the other colours :)
