i always thought that the black and white photos do not show in detail the equipment, vehicles and their variants and the quality of these photos leave a lot to be desired.
realistic,clear and well detailed drawings give the player what type of weapons he is visualizing,in addition to providing immersion and quality to the game.
there are webs where the modder can have all kinds of armaments, vehicles and variants like this, it would be incredible if someone made a mod and changed the photos in black and white by these drawings.
if I knew how to do it, I would do it myself, but I bring the idea of whether someone with knowledge in modeling dares to do this work.

The Ausf.F was a close sibling of the E, and it remained almost unmodified. It was produced by no less than five manufacturers, including Daimler-Benz, Alkett, MAN, Henschel, and FAMO. It had modified air intakes and a slightly improved Maybach 120 TRM engine. External modifications included smoke generator mounted on the rear, controlled from the turret, and sometimes a stowage box at the rear of the turret, which became a trademark of later versions.

Ausf.G, XVth Panzerdivision, Tunisia, spring 1943. This is a late production vehicle, up-gunned with the new KwK 40 L/48 gun.

Tiger I Ausf.E, 1st SS Panzerdivision, Kharkov, April 1943.

Got to agree with Georgy. Assuming no copyright infringement issues exist, the quality of the images found at Tank Encyclopedia site should set the art standard for AFVs in the game.

in this web there are also naval and air units, which can complete all types of weapons in the game.
