A brief report to bump the thread a bit

.

I think I'm finished with JU_88's MAS. I gave some textures to the torpedoes using a 3D program I'm slowly learning to use. Here's the result:

A couple of days ago I decided to make a test, to see what was I capable of with the 3D editor. I took a Kent Class Cruiser in WDAD and tried to convert it into a Spanish Canarias Class cruiser. Removed the bridge, added a new funnel, changed a few things, and then had a long fight with S3D and SH4 to make it work. It's been a two-day fight, but I'm proud of the results:

It won't be in the mod because I have no idea about who the author of the original Kent is (it is not stock), but it opens the way for me to try to rework some other ships.

Also in the last hours I found a nice Italian WW1 vintage destroyer in the FOTRS mod, and received permission to use it, with one inconvenient: they are not the real creators of the ship. They reworked it but can't remember who is the author. The ship folder is called NDASirtori, if anybody knows something about that matter, I'd like to ask before adding it to the download.

I checked a few webs, and there were about 20 of these old WW1 destroyers doing escort and ASW duties in the Mediterranean. I'd really like to have them in the campaign.
