I am not the author of the sharks head. :smug:

I no longer have it but if you download it and read the read me you may find out. ;)

PS: The Tiger skin was a joke only. :rotfl:

The tiger skin would be ideal for a Cincinatti Bengals, or a Wests Tigers fan though.

One request for DanLisa & Seth: If you're going to do a shark mouth on the sub, can you please try to make it look as close to a Flying Tigers P-40 Warhawk as possible? I've always thought that such a device would look great on a U-Boat, corny as this may sound.

When I graduated from High School (back in the Jurassic Period), it was common to paint your car with funny sayings. I painted my Olive Green 1968 Pontiac Tempest like a Flying Tigers P-40. I had the shark face in the front, multi-color flames out of the wheel wells, my name on the side along with various kill signs (e.g., silhouettes of rabbits, mail boxes, baby carriages, and a few old ladies with canes), a skull and crossbones flag flying from the antenna, and written across the rear of the truck was "Sayonara Sucker!".

The greatest compliment I received was at a traffic light. An older gentleman who was of an age to have served in WWII gave my car a very stern looking over from bumper to bumper. Then affixing me with his gaze, gave me an enthusiastic "thumbs up". That was a pretty cool moment for a WWII history geek like myself.

Put the theme to Jaws on the gramaphone, raise scope so you get a nice wake..and go hunting :up:

That certainly is an impressive vehicle. And Danlisa, thanks for the generous offer, but I'll shop around the existing skins a bit more first- after I get a few more patrols under my belt, then maybe I'll be worthy to get a custom skin... maybe something with the PRC crest and assorted badassery.

Pants, what boat is that white shark skin for?

And finally, who is this Bernard fellow I've been hearing so much about?

TarJak 11-29-06 01:49 AM

Bernard was born here to Dowly a while back: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=84773

Thanks!! I would post a photo of it, but all of the photos were lost by the photo development place. Ah, the dark days before digital photography....

I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with. There are several photos of P-40's on this site for reference: http://www.ww2incolor.com/gallery/U-S-Air-Force?page=1

Thanks again! :up: :up: :up:
