Hi all - I'd be grateful if someone could do a quick desert scheme for the Aussie Leo 1 please - way beyond my skills I'm afraid.

thanks in advance - smith

I'm currently working on a hi-res Leo1A5DK skin for First Clash, but once I finish it would be easy to convert to a desert skin. I'm almost done.

Nope, sorry - I was thinking along the lines of tanks being pulled out of mothballs, given a quick coat of sand paint and rushed into the middle east (this would be consistent with my scenario). I don't think there's a desert scheme for the real thing, though some real Aussie tankers may know better.

A couple of pictures here at wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weaponry_of_the_Australian_Army.

It seems they ADF don't go out of there way to put "desert" pattern camo on there vehicles, though (at the time of the Iraq pictures - July 2005) they might not be deployed in a particularly desert part of Iraq.
