Ive been working on these brand new player icons on off for a while now.
I put these player icon together for a clan called the Home Guard, i did try some time ago to put together some admin player skins together but unfortunatly i couldnt get the axis admin skins to work right, i was able to get the allies working but as i said i couldnt get the axis working.
Then i thought why not make a player icon so i spoke to the guys at HG and they said yep that would be great so thats what i did, they are a great bunch of guys on the Home Guard server so i was happy to put together some new player icons for them.
Ok well ive done a pack of 4 to use, all the badges are original and would have been seen on the different Home Guard regiment uniforms back in WW2.
These player icons can not only be used for the guys at the Home Guard clan but by anyone who might like them, so help your selfs guys.
I hope you guys enjoy using these player icons as much as i did putting them together.
Here is some original history about the Home Guard from ww2.
The Home Guard (initially "Local Defence Volunteers" or LDV, or in slang, Look-Duck-Vanish, hence the name change) was a defence organisation of the British Army during the Second World War. Operational from 1940 until 1944, the Home Guard — comprising 1.5 million local volunteers otherwise ineligible for military service, usually owing to age, hence the nickname 'Dad's Army' — acted as a secondary defence force, in case of invasion by the forces of Nazi Germany and her allies.[1] The Home Guard guarded the coastal areas of Britain and other important places such as airfields, factories and explosives stores.
