Late War Factory Oxide Skinpack

Description
In late 1944, German factories were issued a new set of directives, meant to increase tank production. Previous orders for Dunkelgelb tanks, or tanks with the Hinterhalt-Tarnung/Ambush patterns, were deemed to take longer than necessary, and require premium paints that were in short supply.

Panzers were, so the new order went, to be painted with a base coat of 'Red Oxide' paint, a primer used to help prevent against rust, used before other paints were applied, with a smattering of Dunkelgelb applied in camouflage lines across the vehicle, sprayed on at the factory level.

Though the orders were quickly changed back in 1945, one could imagine a factory continuing to produce tanks in such a fashion due to abysmal logistics and a dearth of paints on hand. This camouflage pattern, inspired by real life camos, Relic's own pattern, and CoH 1 skins, attempts to mimic this look.

I created this pattern to be used with the armor-focused subfaction 'Panzerkraft', from the excellent mod 'The Advanced Powers' - you can find it here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1094151332

And now, for some silly lore:

Can't believe this skinpack is only rated 3 out of 5.
It's excellent!

Looks awesome! Keep up the good work! Don't listen to the "rivet counter" type who complain about the historical aspects of it. Many of them base their knowledge on what we know of, not what is unseen. It's been well documented that thousands of different, unique camo schemes existed amongst the Panzer divisions, not all of them were documented or photographed. There's so many camo schemes we don't know about, so unless there's pink digital camo Tiger's driving around, their arguments hold no meaning or validity. I look forward to seeing more of your skins in the future.
