Need inside pictures of IJN submarines
 

I had a few from the "US mission to Japan 1946" but they're all very dark and bad.. (available on my filefront page in pdf format, got it from the fischer-tropsch archive :
http://www.fischer-tropsch.org/prima...USNTMJ_toc.htm)

Can anyone find good pictures of the interior of any Japanese submarines and post them on filefront for instance ?

even outside detailed pictures are welcome off course !

as are : japanese color schemes for submarines.

To our regret, most of the photograph of the submarine of Japan has been lost.
However, the movie made during the war for propaganda seems to remain.

The only good thing about this lack of information about how the real interiors of japanese subs were, is that you can do your custom one and no rivet counter will be able to complain with a basis :lol:

As i already said somewhere else, just do something different from the U-Boat and use it for all japanese subs, I'm sure it will look good enough :up:

If and when I start the interior, I'd like a bit of data though.. like the first two pictures :)

Because it photographs making use of the American submarine and the like, the movie other than that differs from the real thing largely.
But, the recent movie uses the set which is close to the real thing on the basis of historical record.

When I get moved, I'll look through my books

Too bad that there isnt that much stuff on Japanease subs. Now I see why UBI didnt do SH4 with a Japanease campagine.:yep:

Finding reference would be a killer:doh:
