Reforge begins: the Eisenhans pilot

Plan agreed: a faithful remaster. The 1998 model sets the shape, a concept sheet sets the detail level, and the original governs how a unit reads from the commander's distance. The first unit, the Taerkasten Eisenhans, went through nine versions. I overruled the reviewers twice and the rule for everything after came out of it: battle-worn realism, never toy-clean, no camo patches.

Eisenhans (Taerkasten): 1998 vs Reforged. Top row: the 1998 Eisenhans. Bottom row: our rebuild, same ten angles. The pilot unit. Nine versions and a lot of arguing before I picked the rugged v7 over v8 and v9, which looked too clean, almost like toys. Every later unit starts from this recipe.
