On open top vehicles I recommend just trying to play their role to get the best out of the camo, this means being aware your armor is poor but you have great firepower, thus you might want to stay in a sniping position covered with leaves or bushes and trying to hide as much as possible. My recommendation is that you adapt your camouflage to your tank, so for example if you know the Sherman Jumbo has a massive weakspot on the left side machine gun port of the hull, cover it with bushes or leaves, this will give you certain advantage over an enemy who knows about this weakspot and can give you vital seconds to aim while they are confused trying to figure out where to shoot exactly.

In the 'User skin' drop-down menu, change the skin from Disabled to a new skin template.
