Oh wow. The rapid turnover makes it sound like the main goal for you guys was database cleaning and back end overhaul. Is that a good characterization?
Well, given that we lost the original site and the replacement site that was in process turned out to have other technical blockers, in all honesty the main goal was just to reach the point where we could say:


The current site more than did that. 
Meanwhile, planning for the next revamp has drivers on both the front and back ends.

Ah. That tracks.

It's https://camospecs.com.
Keep in mind DNS changeovers can take a while to propagate, and we're working to remove what is essentially a redirect at the moment.

I'll also be keeping an eye on this thread for issues (like the two already mentioned) to see what we can do.
Thanks for this!

I saw your guys stuff on Facebook, looks sweet.
Are you guys going to be doing another set of videos as well this year?

No, no videos this year.  During the COVID years we redirected the effort we normally put into the larger board into setting up for and creating those videos.  The planning and execution differs drastically between the two setups.
That being said, professional-grade video technology becomes more and more accessible each year, so hopefully there will come a time where we can easily do both.

I just saw (and downloaded) the "Cockpit painting guide" pdf from the CSO website. Thanks a lot for having that in one place.

I have a suggestion though - rename it to "Cockpit location guide".

I was expecting an actual cockpit painting guide, for the jeweling effect or something, that CSO artists use for the most part.

The Vedette Tank has a map.  Obviously, he needs directions to AdeptiCon so he doesn't miss the Mercenaries Kickstarter launch...  :thumbsup:

Just noticed the First Liao Guards are on the "Unrepresented Units" list but are in fact represented.

Corrected.  We appreciate any and all efforts to track down and eliminate Hidden Lion units.   ::)

The following units are on the "Unrepresented Units" list but do currently have painted-up miniatures:

ilKhanate, Clan Sea Fox
Eighth Avalon Hussars, Federated Suns (also, the Eighth's page incorrectly refers to it as the Eleventh)
Dahar DMM, Federated Suns
Griffin's Pride, Mercenaries
XII Hastati Sentinels, Republic of the Sphere

The CSO site is currently throwing up NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID warnings. Just wanted to bring that to your attention.

Thanks.  We’re aware, and believe it’s related to some DNS changes made today while working on email issues.

Also glad to see it back up. Although, the page version I am getting looks like a mobile page. Anyone else getting that?

Would either of you care to quote whatever is there so I don't have to visit "big social"?

Something new - "Camo Specs Online - A Guide to Faction Paint Schemes" is coming October 20th.

Likely the long-promised Clan Invasion reward, first six issues that as of the January 2023 update were ready and likely to appear in February 2023, are finally arriving.

Hello! I was perusing the site just now and have noticed a discrepancy. Under the Ghost Bear section, the scheme for Taiga Galaxy is called a treeline camo pattern, but in Dominions Divided there is artwork depicting a Taiga Locust IIC on page 83 in a splinter camo pattern, which is listed on CSO as being Tundra Galaxy's scheme. Which is the correct depiction of which?
"Well, I do, Marcus, and rule number one of the MAC has always been that the man with the plan leads. If we get shot up, I'm the first one to get my ticket punched. There are no flags in the MAC."
"And there never will be," Barton said, nodding his head in agreement.

"You guys are facing a freaking Shadow Division! These guys have strict policies against playing fair!"

"I don’t care. Kill them. I planned the defense so I know it will work. If they claim otherwise, they’re cowards. Any step back is a betrayal of me, and saying they don’t have enough men is just an excuse for incompetence and disloyalty. Tell the Krypteia to do it if you’re too soft but get it done." -Emperor Stefan Ukris Amaris I

We translated the Locust IIC as an alpine camo, which is mentioned in their scheme description as being used in arctic environments.

That is a gorgeous Dragon's Fury Awesome! The kanji work is outstanding and I love the scene stagging. Amazing work.
