Hi everyone ^^
I'm glad to release mi first 3d heavy modded ship!
Avaiable in 3 version:

WITH guns and airplanes:

WITH guns and WITHOUT planes:

and WITHOUT planes and guns.. no simage for this version.. just image the upper without cannons, a\a and lights :rotfl:

download link (all versions in a .zip):

http://www.sendspace.com/file/ousmdn

This is a BETA version, with some problems (one propellers is static, initially this was intended as a static unit; a deck texture near one elevator is strange, some shadows are lighted) :hmm: but for now this is my best ^^ if you can emprove this work, call me

This is a big file, 21,6 mb.. say me if you found some errors! You can post reports here or via PM ^^

Realism lovers can put this unit in GENOVA dock; some others can create italians battle groups with a carrier..

Based on GEROME Graf Zeppelin, heavy modded; thanks, gerome!

Thank you Mr. Dos I'm going to put her into an italian port and have her sailing the high seas soon enough. Do you know what kind of escort she would have had for protection should she had sailed?

Paul.Saenger · 11-22-07, 07:24 PM

Thank you for the ship.

Very interesting design...and excellent job.

One more to decorate the med with...now when the warspite and the richelieu are finished, I will die a happy man.

It's soooo beautiful.

Just one doubt: the red and white recognition stripes seem a little too narrow to me, if compared with images of other Regia Marina units. Of course, Aquila never had them (it was never painted -- as far as I know -- and a "rusty" version for realism sake would be just great...), but just to get the same look and feel of other Italian combat vessels.

Gute Jagd

Von Dos I saw your sig for the first time and my mouth is watering. I don't know whether to thank you or shun you all ships modeler

. I can't stop playing SH3 because every now and then new ships would be available to satiate my hunger to sink more and more type of ships.

Great models. I wish there was a Queen Mary model kit for me to build. She's lovely.
