Does anyone have a picture of the U-124 showing the frog on the front of the conning tower?

Wasn't U-124 the "Edelweiss" boat?

Not too clear photos, but you can see both the frog and the edelweiss:

IIRC, when Mohr took the command of the boat, he applied the frog to the front of the tower and let the Edelweiss emblem remain on the sides.

Yeah....the Edelweiss was on each side below the weather shield but it also had a frog on the front centre.

I'm after realistic photo to guage the true size of the frog:

I have a nice book with u-boat emblems. I will look for the frog. May be there is a coloured drawing.

Are you following a career Jim ?

It's the dimensions/proportionality I'm most interested in, but any info is most welcome.

@FIREWALL

Not so much a career.....I'm trying to expand on some work started by Privateer around those conning towers that had multiple positioned emblems over a year ago (see screenshot above).

[Dowly]

I played around with the measure tool to get somewhat accurate vertical position for the frog. Hard to get the horisontal position from that angle, but you can see it's definitely off-center as the arse of the frog is just barely visible to the left of the photo.

Looking at the screenshot, I think it would be pretty good if you just moved it up so the eyes were on the level of the top railing of the tower, the feet should be then atleast farely close to the spot I marked to the photo.

[Jimbuna]

Cheers Dowly, I'll be sure to pay special attention to the erm....arse :DL

I could of helped you out here had a very good ebook on Uboats and their emblems U-124 was one of em with a clear picture of the frog and in color!

Trouble is the ebooks and many other apps on subs are all gone, thanks to a trogan i got last few days :damn: my antivirus warned me about a possible trogan infection and recommed i do a Full dos scan which i did after 2hrs and 14 trogans later my pc is clean :o This trogan spread like wildfire infected everything it could get its hands on in my D drive where i store all my best stuff. I had to reformat D drive. Luckily windows on C was ok.

The culprit was a freeware app called Freecorder which i downloaded from there site! I need some app to record the sounds from Das Boot movie & convert them to ogg sound files so i can input them into SH3 (making my own little das boot sound mod) I found freecorder and thought this is what i need. Boy was i wrong. Totally stuffed up my pc for two days.

Avoid Freecorder!

Not to worry, I'll work from Dowlys picture.

Thanks for the consieration and pleased your sorted.

BTW...I use Trojan Remover (highly recommended):
