I know - this is non-realistic and non-historical camo. Looks too green and crazy.
However - i love this skin. It contains months of hard work - each nail/rivit,
waterhole on upper hull section was placed manually by me.
I'm crazy as this skin.
Template for this work was taken from Fubar's treasures - skin VIIC plain and other.
I'm using and learning Photoshop CS2 and Saint Paint 12.2.
I want to thank Yamato9 and Wolfehunter for their help, constructive critic and feedback.
I want to thank Fubar for granting permission to me for using all His work during making skins.
I want to thank all skinners on this forum, for their impressive work.
Regards.

So your off to Kursk are you? :lol:

Emblem goes well with the camo, well done on your first one. :up: :up:

Looks great Lutzow! :up: When Steed put the cross on there, it really reminded me of a paint scheme they put on stukas to camoflage them while they were on the ground.

Ooh, green, grey, green, black and green. My favorite colors!:rock:

Maybe not historical...but it could have been. And should have.

Now that is just WOW!:eek: Snot green, different, I gotta have it!!:yep:
Cheers.

It may not be historically correct,but it is bloody stunning:o:up::rock::yep:and for a first attempt,as Reece so rightly said.....WOW:od/l now.Its a keeper,will use on my next patrol;)definately keep up the good work!
