His time, his models, his choice. Simple

Here's some more reference pics (if you want loads just search PECOC on google images)

Green PECOC + side view:

And here's a nice sum up of what PECOC is:

well I was just thinking about maybe finishing the model along with its texture first before I contact any of the devs. I will get a quick sneaky peak for you guys to shee what the texture will look like, In fact I may aswell post the image I sent to tonnie...

Its still got alot of work left to go, as you can see, but another WIP cant hurt

edit: thanks for those pictures! didnt realise they have already developed the green camo aswell!

No worries.

I really want the Brit's upgraded in PR, to what they're are planning to bring/already have brought in to the troops in RL. SA80 with railz, hawt new camo, new mastiff's/bulldog's. If I had Photoshop, i'd get stuck in but unfortunately i don't have x amount of £'s to go and buy a copy and I don't wanna pirate one...

So good effort once again, cos that texture looks very, very good.

I had the same issue my friend. Luckily I took a graphics course at college, which Im still doing and managed to get a copy off them

anyway im glad you like my work, its great working on the model, but even better when you get praise for something you have done, so thank you, I appreciate it.

Very nice job guys, looking pro!

PS what font is that Tonnie??

Post by **Tonnie** » 2009-05-10 14:19

the font is called "Hyborian"

Morgan · Post by **Morgan** » 2009-05-10 14:20

Very nice work guys.

Just a thought, wouldn't the goggles either be up on the helmet or being worn? If they're dangling round your neck it's just going to get in the way. Just in most pictures of soldies, they have them up on the helmet when they're not wearing them.

EDIT: Just had a closer look at the model and it appears there are two goggles!? One being worn and the others dangling round his neck...

Looks like a child somehow.

Squaddie09 · Post by **Squaddie09** » 2009-05-10 14:23

It is still a wip. I would like to introduce very fine details to the model aswell, such as the lumes we usually keep on our osprey, in order to mark out IEDs when it comes to carrying out the 4 C's. You will notice that all soldiers within Afghan carry these, infact all ISAF forces do. But little details like this will defiantly add to the realism

Morgan · Post by **Morgan** » 2009-05-10 14:26

Talking of little details, shouldn't the mic be on the other side? Been looking at reference pics and almost all have the mic coming from an ear piece on the left ear, not the right.

I'm pretty sure every soldier i've seen has it on their left.

Squaddie09 · Post by **Squaddie09** » 2009-05-10 14:32

the PRR is designed for the left ear. Don't worry that is easily corrected, Me and Tonnie decided to collaborate our work together now to see what we have to work with, and I think the model with Tonnies kit geoms looks awesome, Im very happy with it! This image was only rendered only a few minutes ago so theres still abit of fine tuning to go, but dont worry it will be fixed

Give them a big, bushy tasch. Well, the officer should have one for lulz...

Decreasing the size of the boots may help

RedAlertSF · Post by **RedAlertSF** » 2009-05-10 14:56

Here's some problems I see:

- Boots are way too big

they're not detailed too, but your model is WIP so I guess it's OK
- Helmet looks very odd, like it's too big
- Goggles should be on the helmet
- Why does the kit have only magazine pouches? Grenade pouches, first aid pouches and other utility pouches would give us more realism

- I don't know what headset Brits use, probably Swimmer or Bowman and they both are placed on the head like Morgan already posted

But it looks promising, keep up the good work!

EDIT: Oh yeah, I know it's very little thing, but soldiers should have ESS V12 goggles. http://www.equipamientomilitar.com/tien ... er_v12.jpg
