why you may ask, hmmm because its a great piece, and because I have spent a very long time on this skin
Looks like you've you spent quite a bit of time on that! and only using Bump and shine maps too im guessing? Quite impressive! It just so happens i know another type 59d that needs some love too if your interested?

Got it to this stage a few weeks ago before i decided i needed to totally remake the ERA panels which originally came from a t54 skin

which obviously means redoing the camo net which was a bit shoddy tbh
I am a bit of a perfectioinst lol
just removed my ERA and threw the rest over your model so you can have a look

did you manage to get this working in rextimmys viewer or did you view the skin in autodesk ?
I don't actually have a type
I have been using the viewer and model swapping to see it in game

couple of problems skinning wise
skirt is mirrored, I need two separate skirts to match up each side.
barrel seam is on the outside, would be good if the seam where the edges of the skin meat up was at the point where its hardest to see facing the tank.
also mirrored barrel ends when two separate at least for the outside facing ends would be much better
the bars of the turret cage appear to share skin with the skirt, they need their own section.
apart from that it is going well, work on it more when i get home.

To me it's the best screen I've seen so far. I Tried to make some skins, but remodeling nothing 4 me ;)
I'm looking forward to see more from your awesome stuff!
Great Job!

The lastest model that has now been completed but not yet been released; fully supports in-game camo (as well as bump, and shine maps)
Im being asisted by kyphe who's now skinning this new model in the default green, once he's finished we can release it
Im sure he'll also do his own fantastic custom patterns as he posted above too.

Great piece of work. I'm using it and it looks amazing. T54 in the future plans? ^_^

Hey Foxdie & Kyphe...loving where there this re-mod is going. Can't wait for the finished product in all it's awesomeness!! One question I have: Do you have any intention of putting some sort of closing plate on the ends of the ERA panels? As they look a little unfinished to me at the moment. It's no biggie, great remodelling, but would finish it off well

Vrey nice skin and cant wait for crash model 
Getting the gun and chassis working is my priority. But if a fix comes quickly i'll start work on the crash model as soon as i can

Please make a version without ERA armor

You mean, just the skirts, smoke launchers, cage armor and large barrels?
