Ariete Icon Set

[oragus]

Looks good Pierre.

1) If it has them, add them, is my philosophy.
2. If at the very least, we need a desert tan or whatever the Italians use in the desert, and a winter scheme for them. To my knowledge the Ariete has not been sold to other countries as of yet, so leave it green. I have not seen a 3 tone NATO scheme on one yet.

Nice Work.

Thanks for your effort!
1- yes it has them
2-In 2004 the NATO 3-tone camo was presented at the Republic Day parade in Rome, it was said it was going to be progressively adopted since then, together with snow- and desert paints for special missions. I don't know how widespread it is now, but sure it would look cool!

Thanks for the comments.
I'll add the smoke grenade launchers and I'm working on the 3 tone camo. I think I will darken the MG-3's barells too (like oragus is doing it on his machineguns). It looks better.

Brummbaer, if you like Italian stuff, oragus has released great icons for the pumas, the VCC-1's and the VCC-2's.

Bye,
