Okay, she looks different from the screens above..
That USS Permit skin did not look good in game at all

So I re-did the skin, a bit more naturel.. but still heavy weathered
Skins is available in first post and on my website.

Now if only there was a way to have multiple skins in the same folder starting from clean then after a few patrols the skins change towards the wear and tear thingy by means of date implementation. That would be

Good to hear!

One suggestion I would make for you to improve your work: the "poles" on which the SD and SJ radar antennas sit still retain their black color with your late-war skins. From what I've seen, these would've been painted to the same standard as the rest of the boat, minus the radar dishes and antennas, of course.

Thanks.. I will see into it.
Do you know if these poles are also black in the original grey skin ?

The heavy weathered skins I make, are mostly based on pictures..
This is how a sub would look like after a patrol.

I cannot find a lot of photos with rust.. looks like they painted the boats regurly..
Do you have a photo how you want the sub to look like ?

Yep, they have the right color, it seems, in the gray version.

No I dont, I just like the added character a ship with pouring rust stains at some of the seams would have.

What Im looking for would likly be more like a moth-balled boat. Tired, worn and combat weary.
