The ships of Silent Hunter were very much an evolution of those found in Silent Service II and the Great Naval Battles series as they were all the work of the same artist the aforementioned Kim Biscoe.
Makes you wonder what those guys could accomplish today given the much higher resolutions etc. That the original SH interface and ships still look pretty good even today and still warrant our praise is a testament to Kim's brilliant artistic talents. What a shame, given his amazing background that he is not using them for creating naval games any more...
