black swan skins

[ichneumon]

This file contains 8 new skins for the Black Swan Frigate. These skins are based on photographs of black swan vessels during WWII. The textures were created by others, I have just combined them and applied the paint. Most of the photographs I had to go by were black and white so I had to guess at some of the colors.

I would like to make a few more Black Swan skins but I have not been able to find much information on colors. Below are photographs of two more ships I would like to make. Can anyone recommend a source for color information for these ships? When in doubt I have been using western approaches camouflage colors but it would be nice to make them historically accurate. I found a good resource for Flower Corvette colors (http://www.cbrnp.com/RNP/Flower/PROFILE/Profiles-01.htm) and will be releasing new corvette skins soon...

For these vessels, I assume you are using the multi-skinned .dat files from Sergbuto and UBOAT234?:hmm:

Yes, I included it in the download for those who do not have that.
