Can't say anything else than that it looks good, but it sure is a bit too much. I like this color much more than the one you used on the first pics though.

As someone else said previously; nice that the MEC get some more attention. So sad that the non-western armies are stuck with these ugly DICE skins and models (it's getting much better though. The new Chinese vehicle-skins are just fantastic, and this looks very nice as well).

They are still too dark.

I really like the "dirtier" look. Very realistic when they drive around that much in the desert.

Although I would like it if the color was a little more yellow (close to the ref pics on the first page or maybe something like the M1A1 skin color?). The current color is a little bit to grey, if you understand what I meen.

The Vodnik looks like someone took it mud bogging.

They are good looking, but at the same time they feel too "smooth". Like if someone painted them with latex paint for walls.

How's this (colour tweaked):

I like it! Now just give details like the arabic letters on the side and the 416 on the turret darker colors so that we will notice them.

And before anyone says that it's still "too dark", take a look at this:

Thumbs up all round Geze

Its nigh perfect now, except that I'm still feeling that its removed from its environment, in the way of dust and sand buildups towards the tracks and the lower hull.

I like it.

YouTube - T-90 It's really hard to be the best

I like the one shown at 01:13 (from a parade in India, I think. And ignore the horrible music!). Would suit the MEC very well.

Yes, before anyone else ******* about it being to dark... consider:

1. I am showing screenshots of it on Kashan, but there are many other desert maps which utilize MEC armour, all of whom are darker then Kashan's white sand. The vehicles have to work on all maps.
2. This is how the T-90 currently looks:

I will be updating the T-90, then doing the rest in the same way as the T-90, then I'll post new screenshots, and possible download.

If you want to go take some pics of the current T-90, go ahead, and I'll try to match them.

looking great!

Yes, that is what im talking about!
I love the dirt on the BRDM

, GJ.

One minor and not nessecarily realistic comment. What about some warping/wearing on the pain around barrels of larger cal weapons? Like on the T-90 barrel, some paint on the barrel tip could be warn/scraped.
