Hello guys, I'm workin on some rare Ardennes December 1944 pattern for Relic's War Paint Contest, and in need of some feedback.

Here is the references:

The colors seems to be:

1) Factory Base Coat - 8012 Dark Red Primer (or Rotbraun RAL 8012);
2) Disruptive Pattern 1 - RAL 7021 Schwarzgrau;
3) Disruptive Pattern 2 - RAL 7028 Dunkelgelb.

I couldnt find a lot of info on this, so it's seems what it's a sort of custom-modifed pattern. But the colors seems legit and I liked them a lot, so I decided to make it :-) After all, the skins suppose to be inspired by historical events, not necessary be copy of it.

So here is what I did so far:

Winter version:

Summer version:

Feel free to share your opinion or some constructive criticism :-)

These look good, and I think will look great on smaller vehicles. Keep up the good work.

Very cool, I hope we see more realistic skins like this added.

Less blood soaked skins and wierd bright stripes like Fox Company camo.

Damn, those are gorgeous. If I had half the skill as you, my skinpack would have been done in 2 days

Awesome! What are you using to preview the model?

Thanks :-)

I'm using Company of heroes 2

Working with texture files directly, with the game running on the second monitor, so I can correct mistakes I made on previous version of the mod. And so on.

Thanks for the reply!

Aw, man. That would save me so much time if I had another monitor going.

So the preview images you posted are shopped together from screen shots you took in game and put onto gradient background, or are you using a 3D editing tool?

Lady Xenarra: @Willy Pete The lack of April Fools this year is odd lol

Willy Pete: @Rosbone not dead yet. when that happens the font will switch to Papyrus

dasheepeh: it was an honor guys

aerafield: yeah I already prepared my "Can't believe there's comic mode for the 10 daily visitors even on this April 1st"

01 Apr 2025, 20:29 PM

Rosbone: @dasheepeh I guess that means this site is officially dead

01 Apr 2025, 20:19 PM

dasheepeh: no comic sans font for april 1st this year?

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes
01 Apr 2025, 02:36 AM

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy
