[QUOTE=Penguin-Man;20162550]the vehicles are rather oversized, but that shouldn't be a problem ingame[/QUOTE]
How are the Krieg?
I just tried to make everything realistic as possible, but I guess that's not what I should do considering that I'm drawing things in MSpaint

Why not? MS Paint is just like photoshop, you deal with pixels and the only thing that differs is that you do not have as many tools as photoshop or the likes, and you'll have to spend more time on it, but it's still very much possible to draw realistic stuff with it.

By realistic I meant size. Irl, I'm sure an armored car or a truck meant for carrying troops would be much larger relative to the soldiers that I drew, and yet, they are still considered oversized by everyone
To answer your question : The aeroplane is probably too big if it's some sort of fighter plane, although it looks more like a bomber and I suppose the size is about right.
The truck looks too big though, the front-car is awfully high and wide, and could probably do good with some shrinking.
The motorcycles are enormous, a tip is to do something like 2px = 15 cm, this differs obviously depending on how big you draw the humanoids, since you could probably go with 1px = 10 cm if you draw humanoids as tall as 20px high.
The armored car looks a bit too tall, you should probably make it wider and lower, looking at wikipedia on some models (And you're going with the german ones during WW2 so there should be sufficent information size etc on wikipedia or any other site like that).
The tanks looks like Sherman tanks, they look good but does not really fit with the theme, and could probably be a little wider too.
I must say though, that flag you've made is really, really well made, the explosions too, the landing craft you've made is about right size. :)

Well it depends on what truck you are doing, here's a picture of an opel blitz with the driver ;

Notice that the soldier is about the size of the front-car, this is a medic transport so the back carriage is bigger to allow people stand up in it.

Here is another picture, you'll notice that the back carriage is roughly the height of a standing soldier, not accounting the tent draping.
The size of the tent draping obviously depends on what the intended use is, but you should make it so that hunched soldiers can easily run out of it in case of fire or any other disturbance that requires the soldiers to exit it.

Here is a pretty decent picture, the tent draping is roughly the size of the front windows, and I belive that is about the size a regular transport vehicle would be.

Just had a quick check, your truck is roughly 4 meters tall :v:
The motorcycles I knew were GIANT, as you can see, the one on the right is amazingly huge. That was the first one I made, and compared one of the men to it, and thought "holy shit"
I did have to make them pretty big though, or it wouldn't have looked very good I don't think.
I also agree that the armored car is too tall, and I'll probably shrink it. The reason is because I accidentally used one of my old men which are too tall as comparison when making it.
Also, when you say front car, what do you mean? (I'm american)
[editline]05:35PM[/editline]
But hey, the back part of mine is the size of a standing soldier. Maybe my soldiers are still too tall, haha
I think you should try to make it smaller, I guess you made the vehicles after you made the bigger soldiers, and then re-did the soldiers, right? :)
I do not know the real name, I guess I should've clarified more what I meant with the front car.
I circled what I mean with the front car ;

Hope this clears out the mis-understandings :)
And yes, those are bombers. But I added a door for paratroopers. Irl, they are capable for fighting too, but I wouldn't use them for that in pw

Yes, this does, thank you. I'll try to resize these things, although I don't much know how. Even in photoshop I can't, because of anti-aliasing, so I think I'll just redo them.
Yeah redoing is probably for the best, resizing will remove lines and add antialiasing, plus redoing is great practice.
It'll be easier this time around though, since you'e already drawn it :)
Any ideas for a evolution type army?(cavemen-medival style thing)
I want something different that isnt like orcs or dwarves.
Lizards, we have too few Lizard armies.
Hfff...I want something humanlikeish
We have too many Humanish armies. :downs:
But anyway, make Humans that start regularly, evolve and over time become more and more dependant on technology until the end up much like the Strogg from Quake, pretty much nothing left of their old bodies, just metal bodies left in place.
Humans evolving into robots..nice.
Any army ideas people?
I keep coming up with weird ideas. :downs:
[editline]06:01PM[/editline]
Hmm, whatcha want for kinda of idea? :v:
[editline]06:14PM[/editline]
Got some ideas:
An army of robotic things that can't call in reinforcements or just build stuff, they need to "consume" metal from other armies and create new units as they process the metal, meaning they wont need a base and will reproduce quite fast if there's metal around, but without metal, they'll eventually die out.
Or and army that die out in sunlight and is almost completely underground based, they will build up factories underground and start producing a steam/gas that blocks out sunlight, wich they will occasionally realease into the air above them to slowly block out all sunlight so they can emerge in hordes and start eating everyone.
Updating The NOD Forces people...
I Will have to re create the Infantry and i need to create poses for the cyborg tonight. That is my goal for tonight.

Bam. My updated sheet as of now.
humvee is a bit too small
Yeah,your soldiers are higher than the humvee
Humvees are actually around the size of a human being.

the wheels are to small then
[URL=http://filesmelt.com/][IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/Wierd_shiz.png[/IMG][/URL]
What have I done? :v:
decided not to redo the infantry (cbf) but i've added walking and shooting poses for the Cyborg.
[B]To Do:[/B]
Engineer
Rocket Infantry
Buggy
Motorcycle thing
Other Infantry and Vehicles i forgot (screw the medic, they're useless in PW anyways)

What haven't you done, you mean? You didn't make good background sprites or shading.
Other than that, AWESOME.
Ok, I've decided to give up on the nazi army I made. I really want to make another humanoid race, even though they are overused. But I was wondering... do medieval armies really have a place in PW? A lot of the armies here seem to have guns, and I don't think that it would be very fun to have guns with a medieval army. I don't understand how that would even work. Could someone explain?
Does any one here have a huge collection of Army Sheets, I'm trying to find an old freebie. PM me please.

on the original forums, medieval armies are as plentiful as modern armies. but i guess here on facepunch, we like guns better
Stealth,a few people here have medival armys.Look on the civilization thread.
Ive started making an army(With a people template[free]) that evolves.
Start of medival,get muskets,then modern day,then futurtistic robots.

Why would I even do any of that?
This was just a random thing I made, not everything needs detail to the max. :smug:
