By the way, did we ever have a thread on the most poular u-boat types and war periods in skinning... in the past years of forum?

Isn't beauty in the eye of the Beholder? :hmm:

I look at all the work from everybody as top quality. No one is better than another.

Each work does attract someones personal taste. But all work is great and the best.:yep:

Now if you want a U-boat coloured yellow with red spots well I don't think you'll find it here.:rotfl:

But I've been know to be wrong:smug:

Wolfhunter,

it is just a small misunderstanding...
I asked about tech. version popularity (Type IIc...VIIb...IXd...?) and war stage (mid 1940...early1942...post D-Day...?)

Visual taste and preferences are different topic and thread... but I agree with You "beauty is in the eye of beholder".

I've seen pages on skins that my look as "kid's cartoon" art level... and somebody else would see my skins as funny, ugly... etc.

But we should all agree, it was Fubar that made first serious skins and templates... made a path and there is no way back!

(Last weekend I loaded default SH3 skin... and it seemed so silly afterall, just waiting for "Tom and Jerry" to appear on tower...)

Any chance of a progress report Adriatico?:hmm: She be a fine looking boat;)

Thank You for your genuine interest,... unfortunately I am two hours weekend skinner. ( You should ask my gen.manager in company, my kid, wife... etc. )

Seriously, i like people that appreciate art... Leave me some e-mail and I'll send it to you, as soon as I fix some 3-4 things. It looks even better in a sim-environment, beleive me, like a movie... ( I don't have any download site anyway... )

Sweet! Now I find a skin for VIIC..great pic!:cool:

Yesssss.....a fellow U-boat skinner who uses "mat colouring" when skinning. Matting makes the colouring look more realistic. I keep coming back to have a look at this skin. That is a very professional looking skin, but don't sell yourself short, if you have the knowledge mod the deck, storage compartment lids, AA gun, deck gun, BBC box, binos, antannas, conning internal wall, grates, man-holes, rivets etc etc

That is the one thing that I pride myself on is skinning the entire U-boat, if you do this that skin of yours will be flawless & may give Fubar a run for his money.

8/10 for me, a very outstanding skin.

Venatore,
I am just playing with a skins, for a fun, trying to motivate people who have enough time to try some more serious modding... by presenting the visual limits of SHIII
(there is a small bunch of us - still dreaming to win the "visual" battle with SHIV... this Christmas will drop the hardware prices, so we shall remain in a small tribe playing GWX 1.04, with a massive winter migration to SHIV - unless we push the visual limits...)

***
I stuffed some system files so ...have to install again, with all the modding... sorry, no news for a week or two.
Just started to work a new template-mix for intro, still very raw but should be more and more relistic, with a photo polishing of details...

I heard the real 7th is on the move to have your board removed... You should not steal others Flotillas ! :nope:
Gsc67,

Ensuring at the sametime "you" don't steal/hijack Adriatico's thread, over a conflict between online flotilla clans. If you want to continue this subject, take via the PM system, don't let it spill into a Subsim members thread. :down:

Enough said on this subject.

Like I said, nice skin Adriatico, can't wait to see how you develop as a skinner, if thats your first one. :up:

10-05-07, 08:47 PM
I did not "highjack" anything ! He advertised...and I made a fact statment. I asked a question beforehand in the thread that I noticed through your wannabe Modderator mode you did not answer.... Nuff said on this subject as well !

Venatore
10-05-07, 11:22 PM
I better answer, or I may not be doing my job as a wannabe moderator :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:anyway, I'm unsure of the skin in question (Artic); however; I have made a Type VIIC U-boat Winter Camouflage Scheme (if your interested).
gsc67
10-05-07, 11:38 PM
I was given the Artic Type VIIC Scheme by the designer and passed it on to him already. And I have your Type VIIC U-boat Winter Camouflage Scheme as well already.. very nice by the way.
