I don't see why they need reskinned? Sure, their color isn't as intense as reality, but it is a videogame, it will never have the same color fidelity. The SVD in BF2 has the synthetic handguards as opposed to wooden ones; but that is reality, not all SVDs have wooden handgaurds.

The EA dragunov is simply a newer version (though it is odd that it has mixed wood and plastic, the vast majority that I've seen have all one or the other)
The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.

I've already re-skinned these. I'm almost done re-skinning all the current in-game weapons. I've also re-skinned every vehicle currently in-game and after finishing the weapons I will be moving onto static objects. Hopefully we can see an entire visual overhaul in 0.6 but no promises there. It all depends on if the devs like my skins.

Yes but the insurgents do use the one with the wooden handgaurd and EA's one being a new version would be ok for the MEC but am i right in saying that it will be repalced with a scoped G3? Most insurgents i've seen in pictures and on the newsuse the wooden gripped and they do use soem outdated weapons, THAT is reality.

EA's textures for everything look way too "cartoony" to me, so I decided to re-skin well.. everything.

Just as a preview of what I mean.. here is a before and after of the MH-6 "littlebird".

I find that the BF2 dragunov looks kinda cool. In reality it looks like a giant piece of over sized ****.

If the Devs do not like your awesome skins, then I will take their skin, and eat it.

The Mi-28 is a new helicopter, it'd be well maintained and is new.
