Damn Mate, you got busy quick.:rotfl:

I dare anyone to ask where the rivet's are.:stare::D

I like the Algae:up:, not too sure about the general colour of the hull/conning. Looks abit 'busy'. (personal preference)

Just FYI mate, when you use an image to overlay on the texture, try rotating it or cropping it, that way you won't get repeats along the hull. Although this is more noticable on the larger IX's.

Good job mate.:up:

Very nice one, but I really think thats a bit too much looks like the boat never saw a dry dock or cleaning for at least 140 days.
Maybe you could build in more sharp edges and deffination on the normal Hull but leave the rust and dirt. Also maybe some repaired and cleaned Parts, done by the crew while on such along trip might be realistic, too.
Also maybe the 3.7cm is a bit to rusty as I think those guns where loked after quite many times....

But no offence its a very nice skin indeed. :-)

Thanx for replys, mates! This is work in progress, so any view and hints are welcome! The rivets will be fixed later, when jedimaster danlisa explains me how to do it! :up:

May the force be with you!:yep:
