Allies AA gun has wrong unit picture IMPLEMENTED

[AquaAbyss]

The allies/USA's AA gun, the Bofors 40, looks more like an artillery gun in the units picture because it has two wheels and doesn't have a rotating turret. A real AA gun in WWII should have 4 wheels and a turret that rotates otherwise it seems historically inaccurate to have an AA gun looking like and artillery gun. Also if you search the Bofors 40 on the internet it has 4 wheels an a turret that can rotate so I would advise to change the units picture.

you are right, would you try changing the image? or anyone can try any attempt is welcome.

Sure! Maybe I can have a go, my other projects are a bit slow.

Here I found a good outline!

A (Plastic model of) German captured AA, but it has the best angle I could find.

Yeh that sounds good I might try remaking it too

[AquaAbyss]

I will also try and make the unit picture

[Stratego (dev)]

cool!v i suggest starting from the current and modifying that

[Puss_in_Boots]

Maybe there is some way we can collaborate on this one to finish it faster and with good quality?

Also unit sizes are 64 x 64 right

[AquaAbyss]

How far are you in finishing the AA gun? Don't rush it if your not close just wandering.

[Puss_in_Boots]

I started from the wheels, and went on to platform, but it may be too 2D-ish

[AquaAbyss]

How is it going now?

[Puss_in_Boots]

My 2nd try is starting to look more 3D.

I think I'm getting better at this.

How far have you gone though?

Please post the old image for comparison for those interested but without AoWW.

[AquaAbyss]

Well the US AA gun is clearly an field artillery gun because it can't rotate 360° and the turret can't aim huge enough but I have know idea how that unit picture was supposed to be a an AA gun.

TO JUSTICE

I will also try

[Ayush Tiwari]

A try

[Ayush Tiwari]

So the image I made got ripped by postimage,and I had to make a whole new one......

[AquaAbyss]

U know what that looks totally fine, try and implement it so we can have the unit picture changed.

[Midonik]

It is waaaay to big compared to current ones. Must be smaller.

[Ayush Tiwari]

resized one....(if you think something more could be done,please tell me what would u like to see,coz I am yet to add teamcolour

[Midonik]

Compere to the current one. It is still too big and I believe the angle is wrong, it's too flat.

[Dagravian]

It stil require some work, but i don't have time to work on it atm, if someone want to finish this one, go ahead...

Added some shading, other than that I think it is ready to be implemented.

Also renamed the image, though I don't know of it is correct. Not too much of an issue, though.
@Stratego (dev), think it's ready?

thanks! in next will be in!
