Tiger 1 models
« on: December 13, 2010, 09:41:47 PM »
Basic model of Tiger1 is not good. (Left)
I have got a scalemodel 1:35 of Tiger 1, and model looks like right tiger on screenshot. And in Internet you can find photos with right Tiger, not left.
Rework please it. That screenshot made in company "Tiger's Heart". Both Tigers 1 (colored and grey used in that company -> i think that models attend in game)

Not true. There were 4 main Tiger 1 models made in the war.
The one on the right of the photo is the earliest type easily recognizable by the large filters at the rear near the exhausts.
The mid-version is the left where these filters where removed and and some other smaller details where changed including racks for track links on the sides of the turret
The mid-late version had a new commanders hatch identical to that of the tiger2, with additional smaller changes like the omission of teh small pistol port on the side of the turret and the removal of the 2 headlights and installation of a single one in between MG gunner and driver vison slit
The final version simply had the steel rimmed wheels identical to those of the tiger2 and a smaller muzzle break on the gun

To conclude, if you're really going to complain about historical accuracy, please dig a lot deeper and learn more about the subject as a half-informed person can be more harmful than an uninformed individual

Cheers  ;)

Ok, I agree with you) i have not learn a lot about that tank)
But, What about a model? do You want to change it or not? In my opinion, right model looks more interesting.

I didn't used Tigers a while ago. But the tiger at the right isn't the Tiger Ace?

I mean, you can use the Tiger Ace model as replacement for the normal one. You can activate it on reward units tab.

Please get that ugly brown tiger skin out then.  It's even worse than the default relic tiger skin, and I cannot replace it with my own skins since EF skins automatically override skinpack skins.  I am forced to look at that brown piece of crap every time I play EF.  At the very least if you want to be "vanilla" use the grey tiger from Xaliber instead.

There will be noobs that complain since they don't know how to apply skinpacks, etc, but who cares about those.

I actually agree with Chancellor. Get rid of the ugly brown EF Tiger and give the old one back, or put in the black Tiger ace or something.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

I like this Tiger skin, but the Black Tiger Ace is the best!  :D

Each to their own so I won't take any offense....tastes are very subjective so I refrain from what I think of other skinners Tigers  :-X

Why should we bring foreign skins when we have our own talented artists?

As Zerstorer said, "[...] tastes are very subjective [...]".
