dpabrams Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Thought I should do up some Canadien units circa late 80's, early 90's. Still working out some details but hope to get the Bundeswer and Canadien units out later this week. The Canadien 3 color and NATO 3-color scheme will take some time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koen Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Hello dpabrams,Any chance that you would work on a 80's single colour Belgian Leo1A5Be ?And since I'm asking anyway:* maybe Belgian M113 * or even the ugly duck AIFV* and BMD in Belgian camo (as stand-in for Scimitar recce)=> et voila: another Nato-country availablenb I have no idea how much work this involves ... guess it's a lot :-(THX, K 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 ...a 80's single colour Belgian Leo1A5Be...Belgian M113 * or even the ugly duck AIFV...=> et voila Here are some screenies of vehicles/camo from a mission I am working furiously on updating. I know these are probably not even close to reality (and certainly not from the 80's), but I couldn't find much on the interwebs in the way of Belgian markings. Just thought you might be interested. P.S. I'm using the Eagle as a stand-in for the Iveco LMV. And I know the Belgians don't use Tigers, but I wanted an attack helo in the mission...so in my world, they do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am ! WOW Looking very much forward to the result. Belgische groeten, K (Cold war 80's BEL camo would of course always be welcome too, if anyone would have the time to care of this) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RecceDG Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Well there's some memories. The "10" callsign on the M113 is a little weird. I've never heard of that being used and my copy of ACP125 CANSUPP1B doesn't have it. If you want the first platoon commander's track, it should be 11 If you do a Leo2A4 in the same livery as the Leo1, you've pretty much hit what the new 2A4 looks like.

enigma6584 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 If any are interested, I have some color plates of Belgian and Canadian camo schemes for the Leopards in service back in the 80s. I could scan them and send. Just let me know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are no models that resemble the cast turret Leopard, so I doubt it. The AIFV is an old model that I would never be interested in. It is in a small heap of old models that make me cringe when I see them so I would never touch one. The Beligian stuff if way down the list of things to do but maybe some day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a ref for you in case you wanted to tweak them a bit: Going for that 80's look. Your reference is of the later 90's canadian colors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpabrams Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share Posted January 2, 2012 But its easy enough to do a later Canadian M113. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
