Just a question, what program did you use to make these skins? I too would like to start making my own skins but am a little put off on how to do it (I have absolutely NO experience)

When I first saw it my old worn-out eyes thought it said "Teammate Alcoholic Coating!" Now that that's out of the way, it looks great, whatever it's called!

LOL
I use to only make Clean skins like it just roll out of Dry Dock. So many people complained, this is my 2nd weathered skin ever. Trying to think of a name for it... Maybe "The Merchant Raider" or "The Salty Sea Dog" |

... or maybe the ghost ship. I think ur first skin is just perfect as it is. This is a bit way to rusty, is gives u the feeling of an unsecure boat that is about to sink
I personally love ma boat black thats why I always used the Albreicht camo. I would love to see a black skin with some rust on :P You know, something aggressive looking that bring the fear with it.. u get a heart attack just when u see it And when u see it diving with full steam heading toward you... u just jump off the ship |

Something like this structure. The skin is actually darker but have illumination turned up to show some detail.
Here is a skin from actual photo used as texture. I think I am going with this texture for Structure and Tower for improved alberich skin. Last edited by TheBeast; 06-26-10 at 03:52 PM. |

It's remarkable how shiny the coating is when wet and how dull the drying parts are in the second picture.

The rubber sheets were also much bigger (as illustrated in the drydock pick of U-11 I posted earlier), and if you're looking for total accuracy, the tiled texture would wrap the whole boat, even below the waterline. I believe the bottom paint was a dark grey or black of some sort on top of the sheets. The coating would also have covered up the rivets that are in the bump map. I sent ya a pm with more info. Oh, and U-1105 was built after a better adhesive was found, so it's possible none of the sheets peeled off during it's lifespan. Last edited by Capt Jack Harkness; 06-26-10 at 04:09 PM. |
