Looks good. Not liking the boots altho. I guess it's the misaligned highlight.

Ok... The belt is actually supposed to be silver colored. http://axishistory.com/fileadmin/user_upload/b/belt-heer-em.jpg
Also, don't forget to change the color of the uniform to feldgrau; same color of the shoulder board, and put a thin white line about it. I think we should stick with the defaut boot, and I really don't think we should have a Knight's Cross. The collar tabs don't look too hot. I think you should make your own and use the picture I sent you as a reference. And there aren't supposed to be any helmet decals.

rofl iamnotabear - always something to change with you - even after I made a skin featuring the exact same stuff YOU told me to.

And the collar patches look better in-game.

idk guys i don't really want a green tunic - idc if its not historical becuase of it - i like it grey.

If this is what you want, release it then. It's your skin. You just don't understand what I'm suggesting, I guess. I'll just make my own then.

i like the green uniforms better myself, provided they are torn up a bit, dirty exc..

k you guys win - i'll make a green tunic (but i'm keeping a copy of the grey one on my hard drive ;))

Oh :donrluvs::donrluvs::donrluvs::donrluvs:, that's nice, but the pants should also be green and the helmet should also be a bit greenier ;)

Again, nice work, I'll surely use this once it's released :D

kk thanx for the insight..should the pants still be a little bit darker than the tunic tho?

Updated Green Skin - See link in original post.

alright I'm taking a shot at blond hair - you'll laugh - this is a rough rough rough draft lol

kinda looks white and doesn't contrast well with the dirty face

yeah i'm working on it lol - as i said uber rough draft lol

yay green, i hope you do a "wartorn" version,

anyways i wanted to add that the helmet looks a bit odd, sorry...
i think this looks better.... although it might be the wrong color for time / rank... i have no idea, im not a historian

yea ill work on the helmet - and i'm trying to work on some different hair hues You aren't. :rolleyes:

you make one then lol

this one satisfies my needs - all i wanted when i set off was a default skin (not too different) that had more spice to it and was a little jazzed up.

so is this more how you guys want the helmet to be?

I didn't know you just wanted to spice up the default, I thought you wanted an accurate skin, so sorry for all the hassle, and good job. I'll learn how to skin and make a skin with high resolution/low resolution versions.

i'm gettin ready to release both green and grey soon.

still need work - leaving with brown hair - the blonde just didnt look right.

Looks alright. Some nitpicks:

- I don't think too many infantrymen, especially obershutzes, were given the knight's cross. And if they were, it wasn't worn like a pin at the top of the collar, ribbon was used to secure it in place. Ditch it and leave either the ribbon on the buttonhole for the Iron Cross 2nd class and remove the knight's cross, or move it over to the pocket for iron cross 1st class.
- The shoulderboards are way too green. They would've had piping for the appropriate branch of service. Stick with a thin band of white (infantry), light green (light infantry) or darker green (mechanized infantry) for a more realistic look.
- The boots look a bit.. odd. They look too grey. A rough black or slightly polished look would be best.

Other than that, it looks pretty good.
