Subformation Graphic Requests Thread

I probably can't create subformation graphics that will blend in perfectly with the stock ATG graphics, however, if anyone has any requests for graphics that you'd like to see added to my own custom graphics lineup, feel free to post ideas here, I can try to fulfill whatever missing gaps may exist in my catalog. I have the means to do subformation graphics for most tanks, planes, ships, and soldiers from 1914 to 1950. If you would like a subformation graphic created, just reply below.
I've made SF graphics for self-propelled artillery, alpine troops and marines. So if there are any other significant unit types you can think of, let me know.
I can't do perfect representations for historical units or weapons due to limitations in my own abilities and software, however, I can do approximations. So for example, if you want a Sherman tank, what you'll get is something that looks similar but probably not a dead ringer.
If it's something that I have in my own planned pipeline, I'll let you know and may be able to expedite creating it if I haven't gotten around to it yet.
No long lists, please. However, I can do a couple pics here and there while I work on my own replacement graphics project for ATG.

Have you made a Ranger graphic (Special forces) or a Paratroopers graphic?
Just going off of what is in the stock random game generator. (The A New Dawn Masterfile, and the Phoenix Masterfile)

The ones below are included in my zip file pack which has new versions of all the standard ATG subformation graphics. I also added an alpine soldier, marine, and self-propelled artillery.

I added both Tank Destroyer and Assault Guns as well in the new unit graphics pack I released a few months back. However, I intend to create a new set of all the units also to account for subformations leveling up to more advanced designs.

Here's a link to the thread where all my recently completed units were posted a few months back. There's a chart posted in the thread showing all the new units I created. I think I have all the standard subformations covered that came with ATG, located in the AT2 folder of the graphics folder.

Jeep, yes.
Tankette, I can add. I haven't made one yet as it isn't a standard unit in the stock game.

Thinking about it, I could also add a generic sort of "Bren carrier" as a heavy weapons carrier.

2 tankettes, one with a .30 cal machinegun and one with a 14mm anti-tank rifle. They're a little bit of a cross amalgamation between an Italian L3 and a Polish TKS. Designed to serve as generic subformations.

Can you think of any other missing elements to the subformation roster? Perhaps Ormand might want to incorporate tankettes and weapons carriers into 4 Seasons?

curious if you have thought about making mortar teams for each nation, not just the mortar itself?

The thought has crossed my mind at times. That's a possibility in the future. Right now I'm taking a break from graphics. I've gotten sucked into survival crafting games for now.

I haven't made updated ones yet. I hope to get around to them eventually.

Thank you. It's about the only thing in this world I'm reasonably good at.
