Briefing appearing here (since it's relevant) to rant about one thing. PC Only has three Polish camo schemes; one for each season. However I've come across that on Console you actually have more and goddamn do I actually like a lot of them, having a sort of WWI Feeling to them similar to a lot of WWI French camos (if not directly inspired by them. Heck I think one, Hotchkiss 1929, by the name is literally supposed to be a French scheme). However, oof, it's gonna be a lot of fun time trying to copy this. The general size of a camo scheme is 512x512, 1024x1024 usually for stuff I do just so they can have a bit more quality to them. What is the size I have to work with translating those camos over to PC?  Somebody just cut my head off please. It's not even worth it since I can't even really apply it to any tanks (this one in particular CAN work with ONE French scheme, but since WG Fucked camouflage modders like over with the customisation stuff a bit, that's literally it), BUT I'M STILL DOING IT. I dunno, I just wanted to rant about it and it's relevant to you guys more than anyone on PC. |

Good luck with it, if you manage it please show us the end result :-) It's not those camos, but I have gotten into redrawing camos recently which is probably why I can even muster the motivation to do these Polish ones. Just two examples: Original Italian tri-colour (256x256):  Redrawn (1024x1024):  Or one of my own patterns from before. Due to edits to the customisation system, this colour scheme used to work but now doesn't, and I hadn't saved a version with separate layers (this is like, 3 Years old or more at this point). Besides, I wanted to bump it up anyway: Original (512x512):  Redrawn (1024x1024):  I'll have to probably get screenshots to compare later but eh. Note that the last image has a black background to make use of the PC Paint system, as black on a three-colour scheme will make that transparent, meaning anything applied to replace the base paint of the vehicle will work instead. |

So got a few working, though I'm only happy really with the results of one tbh. I should probably make an image comparing the original file and then my remakes, but that'll be a thing for another day. Polish desert "Cavalry 1934" scheme (unfortunately the best I can preview it on is the French really and none of the French tanks I own actually have good camo tiling):  Polish desert "WZ34 1939" (maybe I should make the lighter green transparent so I can actually use a more desert coloured paint underneath):  And the only one I'm happy with; funny because it's from the Swedish stuff and I hate the Swedes; the Swedish splinter (?) urban pattern. To match that it's got like 4 Different colours, I applied it to a camo with in total about 9 Different colour palettes (though only three are shown here):    I've been distracted with a few other things like the Crusader remodel above and other camos. Namely I've got the fun of trying to decipher the best camos to apply them too to get the most accurate colours to the original Polish ones, since as mentioned, we only have one Polish camo scheme per season so I can't actually preview it on the Poles. How ironic. |

And that one German winter camo that actually looks quite nice. Pardon that my PTA Remodel has some smoothing issues btw.  I'm gonna sort out just getting a few comparison images of the redrawn patterns and the originals for a later post, just to compare how close I made them. |

You've done really well mate, they look fantastic, that Crusader especially.

I'd personally would like WG to put in camos that put rust,scratches on the tanks Perhaps something like a "Winter (Weatherd)"  |

I'll have to get screenshots to showcase what I mean later, but I think that's more likely than a dedicated camo, not that I disagree with the idea mind. |

I decided to sit down and quickly just make a comparison thing between the original (upscaled) patterns and my reworks. Unfortunately I've decided not to bother with some, namely the one posted in the OP Despite that I actually like that one, because it's a 5-colour pattern and absolutely don't think I can make that work for anything unfortunately. Either way, large image and pardon that I deleted the base image for the last one so don't have that to compare it too (posting it anyway, since 8 Patterns looks better than 7). If necessary I can modify the colours to try to match the original patterns the most rather than keeping them the colours they need to be to actually work in-game. Otherwise I've been more busy messing with styles that I think I mentioned (probably didn't, can't be bothered to check). Some more large image spam, but it's been a lot of fun to fuck around with. Probably gonna redo my modding thread on the Console forums just to show it off there too. These aren't final versions yet. GermanChineseAmericanFrenchBritishRussianJapanese
