Another very pretty skin!
Well done :up:

[danlisa]

LOL, Those conning towers are a PITA to skin correctly, esp when trying to add splinter camo.;)

Nice skin, but think about ageing it a bit. Looks too new & clean for a IXD2.:up:

It's a bit confusing at the brginning.
just register and go to the Sub skins garage section. Once registered, click on the Child's boardon that section and there you will find a sticky for ewvery kink of u-boat (VII, IXB, ,C and IXD2) for Koondawg, SWCowboy and me. :up:

You are right Dan... :up:
I started to add some rust to it, let's see how it goes... :hmm:
First time I will try to work with rust effects, so i don't know what to expect.

Give me a shiny new boat any day of the week, rust buckets are only fit for the scrap heap. :rotfl:

Not trying to sell anything to nobody, I just never knew such a skin even existed, and I am also very glad you are all happy there, wherever you are. :nope:
Before making such statements, i would like you to notice that the colors are not the same, but of course, If the author of the skin you display in that screenie used the same model I did, no wonder they have the same or very similar patterns.
I used as a model these:

http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t1/capzap1970/screenshots/x4.jpg
I apologize to the author of this skin, but as I said, i never knew it existed. Besides, my skin was made from scratch, i didn't use anybody's work.

The skin SUBJECT displays in his screenie is my All BGW skin!!!
SUBJECT, sorry if I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying that I copied it from another skinner. Besides believe it or not, i never saw the pics I used as a model for my Grey Camo skin until 3 or 4 days ago. This is the first time I use pics as model for a skin. All previous skins came out of my imagination.
I offer you my apologies for my rude reply. :oops:

Welcome brother, that kind of words are always fuel to keep working.!!! :rock: :up:
Just in case, just by taking a look at the NSSUboat92d.TGA you can see how different they are.

U-181...

Have you read the Jordan Vause's book: "U-Boat Ace - The Story of Wolfgang Lüth"?
If not, he was the captain of U-181 at the later days of his career.
It was ok book, but the Herbert Werner's "Iron Coffins" is best so far (my opinion)... and before anybody corrects me... I haven't read so many books of U-boats yet :cry:

But hope is up that postal service will bring me book about Teddy Suhren and 2 books of Hitler's U-Boat War (The Hunters and The Hunted) very soon :D

Ok, this was off topic and I got carried away... kinda habit to me.... but anyway... you might be interested in that first book, if you haven't already read it.

Nice skin. Did you ever did anything for the IID?

[yamato9]

Nice skin pal, but you already know this!:up:

[CapZap1970]

Nice skin. Did you ever did anything for the IID?
Not yet, i am still working on IXD2 skins only. But soon I will start with VII's and II's.
But first I have to get familiar with the files, the TGA's I mean, have to figure out what goes where. :hmm:
