Thanks again, Gents! Smile

Mooxe, it's a secret man!
Seriously, the graphics come from various sources. My drawing skills sux and I'm no good with 3D graphic renderers like Maya or 3DMax. So the basic soldier pictures come from various sources (ie: some of you might recognize them from Military books) ...then there's the painstaking task of putting the images together in Photoshop, a lot of repainting (like the Jungle Green uniforms replacing Brit Khaki, most of the uniforms need repainting and customization) and other modifications.

As for the Indonesian Units/Teams...you can't find that many pics/photos of these guys...only in museums and books from the library. So besides some modifications to Japanese soldiers, they're mostly custom artworks, with some help from our friends from a Surabaya Reenactors Group who provided color photos of Indonesian War of Independence reenactments...also some custom poses of Indonesian soldiers/militia.

Using photos would have been a lot faster...but unfortunately there's just too few photos of the Indonesian units to represent all the teams needed for the game Sad

I like the look of the mod with custom team artwork though Very Happy
