wait, no need to create a new "Pail container". The game already has 2 versions of pails.

Oh!? I've never seen pails (18 litres size one) in game.
What names of them or where I can download?

I know you published colorful Drum variations on SAS , but they seems 200 litres big.
Default gray drums are also.

I think 18 litres small pail is needed.


By the way, in Japan.
In WWII time, Japan used 200 litres Drum or 18 litres Itto-can.
Itto-can is very similar to British 4 gallons can.

First small pails made in Japan was 1950.
In WWII time , those pails were rare in Japan.
Only imported (before WWII) high quality oils might be in Americal steel pails.

Good day Western, I am back home again. Now I can paint again on my computer  :)

The other small oil barrels I did are in this post - https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php?topic=36559.0
If you look at the picture with the many barrels, in the back there are a set of 3 different style barrels (2 big and one small size).
These are actually in the game as wood wine barrels, but when I researched the books I noticed they were like
old time oil barrels from 1905-1920s made out of metal. So I painted a few 3d-models to look like old style oil barrels for our game
and created new ini-file entries to become new objects.

This square looking oil can for Japanese style oil can is not in the game.
I need to inspect what 3d-models we already have that have the same shape and size and maybe I can create a new set of new oil
cans out if them. I do not think we have such a design in 3d-models of this shape.
This shape of Japanese oil container also reminds me of Olive oil cans, still in use today...  ;D

Typically, at the time, some German tanks, like the Pz III had a rack on the rear for multiple Jerrycans.

Japan Itto-can (5 gallons Tin can)


They are very similar to British 4 gallons squre cans.
So, we can use this model as RAF oil/fuel can in scene of 1930-1940early before capturing Jerry Can from German.

How about the fuel cans from that movie Pearl Harbor that they put into the B-25s? They were also in Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo. Looked like the last ones.
