Panzer Crew and Assault Gun Crew rank gadgets

Post by squadleader_id »

Work in progress...
Since CCTLD now supports separate rank gadget slots for 8 Nations (each with 4 rank gadget slots)...now we can have a lot of different ranks and uniforms represented in the game.
The Panzer Crew ranks in stock CCTLD needs a bit of fixing though...looks like the gadgets are from stock CC5 German infantry rank gadgets painted black.
Panzer crews did not wear infantry BDU (M43?), but they wore their own special Panzer wrap uniforms. Heer Panzer crews also wore the death's head insignia on their collar tabs, not infantry litzen collar tabs.
Heer Panzer crews shoulder ranks were lined with pink, while the Waffen-SS Panzer crews were not...I think the CCTLD ranks have got this mixed up.
Edit: Sorry about this...bad research on my part...both Heer and Waffen-SS shoulderboards were lined with standard Waffenfarbe colors...in this case pink.

Anyway...here's my work in progress on the graphic fix for the Panzer crew rank gadgets (Heer and Waffen-SS).
Any comments, ideas and input is welcome!
