He didnt make the model D:

Theses are the same paras from the dod team , Russ. added the grenades and holster. He also changed the heads to def. models.

I just re-did the skins.

Yes, thier will be a normal and a para set, if Russ let's me realse.

Cheers ,

yeah well i cant say im too happy. i only ask that you people ASK me first before editing and releasing any of my stuff. because then we get people like Sclass12, and others overlooking the original maker.

Well, I hope any hurt feelings can be resolved and these get released, they are great!!

Its not about hurt feelings... just a lil respect thats all
i mean, is it so hard to ask me first?

go ahead and release them i dont care, this kind of stuff goes on all the time anyway...

I suggest the following changes to make this skin EXACTLY like Easy Company of the 506th! Please take these into consideration as I am a re-enactor of E/506 and I have a reletively complete airborne impression:

- Make the boots Corcoran jump boots. You have him with a re-inforced M42 Normandy Jacket, so give him the proper boots. Seeing a para with M43 double buckle boots (the boots you have on him now) on D-Day is as rare as a paratrooper in WWII carrying an M4A1 Assault Rifle...in other words, it never happened.

- Get rid of the flag brassard. There has never been ANY Easy Company member that wore Ol' Glory on D-Day. Why? Because if you've got a kraut looking at your right arm, and if he sees this American flag glistening (since it was oil cloth) among the foilage, BAM, that para is dead.

I would appreciate it if you made these changes, as it would add to the realism. You are shooting for the PERFECT Easy Co. model, and so far, it is minus the inaccuracies thanks to Russ. Conscript and you, and I have just told you how to accomplish that.

If you really want to make my head spin, you could give those skins open collars like the ones featured in this thread:

http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=7238

If you're in a veeeeery kind mood, maybe you could put the bob faces on your skins too? I know it was discussed somewhere in that thread and it would make your pack the absolute difinitive word in Easy Company models.

well no one asks me if they can use my faces. I don't really care since I take it as a compliment. I'm going to redo them btw. It was a bit of a half ass job the first time around. I'll make some better ones once summer is here. :)

NJ, I like. Keep up the good work. Ill await release.

they are great, but in the readme make the statement clear, that u didnt make the model...

yeah they are good, really but U should ask Russ first.It seems that he allowed U to release them so what are U waiting for?
{Russ thank U for making these great models tnx to U DoD is transforming to BoB mod :D } and do what Ponte said ;P he's an expert ;P .


{H2H}Snake...

They look great...

Those are great. Russ do I have your permission? I'll start a BoB reskin on Russ' models tomorrow or Nixon could do it since he already started on this one just dl my skin and get the faces plus the open collar. I have to baby sit my 3 year old cousin right now :p

hes right on all counts plz use his suggests...also the open collar thingy would be cool too. anyhoo nice job so far on the reskin cant wait to use for both reg and para play

Ponte, wow, that must be cool to be a re-enacter of the 506 th Easy Company! I always wanted to do something like that, but not too much WWII re-enactment groups here in NJ-USA I don't think, but Civil War is big here. Where is your group based out of?

I know what your talking about, it sucks to get riped off.

This is why I made this a preview, not a Mrel.

I do the reskinning for my myself.

Still, if some one is interested in my work they can have it.

I am making some new faces, boots and other parts for the set I just used yours because their real good. :D

Update soon!

Cheers,
Nix

Believe it or not Heinrich, I'm from New Providence, New Jersey :D

Our company was activated June 6, 1985. Check out http://www.easy506th.org. Our unit is based out of the easy coast region, with most events in Penn.

Trust me, this hobby is VERY time consuming AND financially over whelming. The hours of research you do to get the impression correct is fun, yet arduous. As for money...heh...I've already spent over 2,000 on uniforms, gear, personal itmes, and I don't even have a weapon yet! (I'm 16, so it's illegal, so I can only be a medic in the company)

the 506 site wont work... :(.
Nixon - Release these quick!!!!! you'll make an update later :D


{H2H}Snake...

OMFG!! niiiiiice!!!!!

/Me awaits release :D :D :D

Any update on the release?.

I havent changed my Allied models from the default ones in 1.0 yet, only my Axis ones ( Devins trenchcoats), so I await this release with interest.

I had done a set of these too, and I evoked the same response from Russ. It is his right and the thread was removed seconds later.

For all of you waitng impatiently for release, here's a tip.

Get Russ's 101st for regular infantry (http://dodec.dodstudios.net/filedb/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=506), and his 82nd para v2. (http://dodec.dodstudios.net/filedb/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=317) Import the 101st textures (they fit, I'm using. His are better then my edits) and now you have a set that looks just like this (possibly better) and is ALL Russ's work so no toes stepped on.

These will tide you over until he wants to rework them himself. I made a minor edit to the arm patch position, added a NCO stripe on the plain helmet as only Sgt. classes use it and removed the US flag as Easy did not use them in the Normandy campaign, but even without theses changes they will look brilliant, trust me.

and Nix, I don't think Smash was saying getting ripped sucks. He said it is a compliment. As a matter of fact he used part of my officers helmet textures in one set, gave me credit of course. I did the same with his faces, when I saw my helmets on his set I though, "Sweet! ppl using my stuff". Different people have different views on asking or just giving credit, we must respect however the creator prefers it. Russ seems to want to keep these for his work, we should let him.

Update:

New boots, The flag is gone (but will be included as a extra .bmp for those that like it). Few tweek also added.

I will realse "soon!" (quote the dod team) :p

Sargent. Smash contact me, I PMed you ...

Cheers,
Nix

can U add some camo on faces.u can alwas include a camo faces BMP's in this pack, for use whoever wants it.Or better release it as an addon for Your pack,later...
