****NOTE THIS IS NOT JUST THE 44-45 VERSION, IT IS PLAYABLE IN ALL YEARS****

Ok from the read me....
Thanks for getting another paint by Koon...
This is JSGME friendly, simply unzip to the JSGME mod folder and activate it to have it in game.

I started out making skins strictly for my own eye candy then
after a few requests I made them public files.
I have always enjoyed making eye candy for a game and also
would like to thank those who download mods (you keep us going) and to those who spend hours making possible a better gaming experience for all who enjoy sim games.
Detail:
This has rust, and is a bit more weathered than I like but do to requests here she is. I re-did the wood in the conning tower and added to the periscope and observation scope a stainless look when raised. The weapons on board has a new look, and the deck has been redone as well...Redid props and
panels on the hull....they look used...

Now I know the Rusty or not poll thats going has some influence..but do to my bro..who signed his life ( or at least 8 years away ) and currently works aircraft maintenance on the USS George Washington CVN 73...god help us all if he is in charge when wartime hits...Love ya Russ
Will testify that rust mainly is on the holes or bildge exits that actually pump salt water out...the hull is submerged most of the time and will rust less than an exposed part of the ship that pumps or gets a spray of salt water....Thus I tried to incorporate this into the sub...I hope you all will enjoy...peace :up:

She is ready for download..ill start working on the IXD and C this week...same pattern..

Greatwork Koondawg. I love that camo. :up: Nice rust patches by the way. It almost looks like the paint is peeling off.:smug:

Very nice skin! I'm a red hull-fanatic;) But I don't like very much the mimetic camouflage, can you make a version with the upper hull white/light grey with some rust under the hull openings? Maybe some peoples would like also this version :up:
