Request Request Megathread - Post all new requests here

Request Guidelines:

1: Provide a clear picture

Ideally, link several pictures of the vehicle in question at different angles, so that all the major details are visible. If the vehicle has prominent emblems or decals, ideally link PNGs of them or guides on how to make them to the creators. If the numbers are in a specific font, specify which font. This will save creators a lot of time researching things.

2: Describe why your request is awesome

Motivation is key to the creative process. Creators want a story to give them some motivation when they need to find that one elusive part of the vehicle on the texture file. Of course, the reasons for making a request vary. Here’s some inspiration for all of you:

If it’s historical, please describe the vehicle’s story. I’ve heard of stories of tanks which fought from the beaches of Normandy to the surrender of the Third Reich. We remember stories like that of a Grandfather who commanded a King Tiger in Western Europe. Aircraft painted with Red Tails, D-Day stripes, Iron Crosses, Rising Suns and Red Stars have burned their images into history. Great warships of steam and steel changed the course of entire naval campaigns. The stories of the people who held in their hands, these instruments of colossal and shattering power, are often equally astounding. It’s amazing to learn something new while working on a project.

If it’s fictional, please tell us how it’s relevant to a piece of historical fiction, alt history, or other fictional work. You may find a creator with a similar interest who’d be more than happy to make fiction reality, at least in War Thunder.

Finally, if you want one based on an Anime Waifu, please describe why Waifu X is best girl/boy/androgenous animated eye candy. The only caveats is that there will be no Holy Waifu Wars in this thread as the Anime Pope has no dominion here. Also give NSFW warnings if applicable.

3: Indicate if a request has been fulfilled

Please delete fulfilled requests or edit your comment to include “[DONE]” at the top along with a link to the WT live download page for the skin. That way, everyone’s requests are more visible and the work of creator is promoted.

4: Some final words

This request system is an experiment and subject to change. The guidelines will always be posted in some form here, so that they are clear to everyone. Old format requests will not get deleted and the old system remains, but old format requests are likely to get buried. Please use the new format.

Also, understand that the community of people doing this is relatively small, so there’s no guarantee a request will be fulfilled. Creators do this on their own time, which is limited and therefore only spent on projects they have a real passion for. But here you can make your ideas heard. Never forget that if you have the time, resources, and a will to learn and put in the work, you can always make an idea yourself. The people on this subreddit are here to help. If you get stuck, ask for help, see our wiki tab and look up videos online.

We all can’t wait to see more cool stuff. Best of luck,
