Submarine Crests

[Marcantilan]

Anyone know where I could find hi or med resolution crests of HM submarines Spartan and Splendid?

I´ve searched the net but I ended only with low res images.

Thanks in advance.

Look up member named Torplexed and perhaps he can make a nice one for you. He is very talented in this area. :03:

Thanks guys, but I only need an image of the crests.

The thing is I´m finishig a book about real ASW ops during the Malvinas / Falklands war, centered in the Argentine carrier and the submarines Spartan and Splendid.

According to the art designer, the crests could look good in the back of the book.

I'm sorry but my searches have found nothing beyond jpeg quality.

Your book sounds interesting :up:

Thanks Jimbuna. I´m very excited about the book.

I submitted the book to the publisher like a month ago and they give me green light (altough suggested more than a couple of changes). Hopefully, it will be published early next year.

Right now, I´m dealing with art, pics and maps.

For example, this one about Tracker 2-AS-22 in the Argentine carrier on May 1, 1982, the day the Argentine Fleet cancelled its attack due lack of enough wind to launch its Skyhawks with full bomb load.

Note the sea, more like a lake than the South Atlantic!

If anyone have good (and rare) pics about British submarines or Argentine planes, etc from the period, welcome!
