Need skin recommendation for VIIB

[DirtyACE]

It's hard to find any skins for this type of sub. There are many VIIC skins out there but I'm just starting my career in 1939 and the VIIB is the only option available, aside from the type II that is. So does anyone have any recommendations for good skins for type VIIB?

Thanks

Fubar, who did many awesome skins, did some VIIB ones. They are available at Jimbuna's Gamefront page here:

Scroll down and look for Fubar Sub Skins VIIB.7z - I think after extracting the files there are 4-5 skins in there.

If you have not looked yet in the Downloads section here, you can try that as well. Click on Downloads up above all the posts, on the left side - go to Silent Hunter III and then go to Graphics mods and there's a whole section just for uboat skins.

Thanks. I did have Fubar's stuff already but thought I might find more skins. I guess I'll have to wait until the VIIC is available.

My favorite (at the moment :03:), is U-253 by the aforementioned Fubar:

She didn't fare too well in RL, but under my watch she's racking up the kills. :DL

While technically a type C, the skin works nicely for the B as well and she's also available for adoption on Jim's page.

I'm currently using Sledgehammer472's VIIB Early War Skin, overall dark grey.
