Here is a pack of realistic M41 jacket sleeves and war torn hands to compliment our 3rd
Infantry Division Enhanced Realism (http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=56028) skins with normal maps. For reference, here is a look at the default sleeves:

People tend to overdo the normal maps on the hands, which looks odd, especially on skin, because it looks like you have crater hands or something, but you seem to have hit the sweet spot. Nice skin too.

You all know it was my suggestion that inspired him to do this so... :D

verry nice work, the first custom hand skin I'm going to use. I really like the texture of the sleeve, and the hands look realistically beat up, I'm glad you didn't go overboard on them. :cool:

Ahaha, hard to tell what? Yeah, my graphics card doesn't really allow for much AA or any other neat settings. There was a slight sharpening adjustment in photoshop to compensate for the blur of resizing.

Love you anyway, Faceman. Thanks for the compliments everyone! Glad you enjoy it!

How do the normal maps look? As mentioned above, I can't see them. :(

Very nice compliment set for your 3ID set. Your releases have -so far- set a standard for the Source MSA releases. :)

Can't wait for the axis side of things to come!!! ;)

Btw, the 'normal' maps enhancement part do i need a particuliar DX API to see them? :confused:

Just use the v_axis_sleeve form this pack and the v_hand from Dill's.

The seam seems to suddenly drop off right here:

Still it looks great! I cant wait for your axis reskins.

Im sure this also has nothing to do with you but I just noticed the square sleeves.

Skins are hard work (so is modelling, animating, coding :P )
