Reworking the 3D model is not to bad.
Stretch if need be and re-UV it.
Then import.

But Positive proof is needed 1st.
Hi Privateer,

I could provide a scaled drawing of the conning tower, taken from the book "Geschichte des deutschen U-Bootbaus" / History of German U-Boatbuilding.
Unfortunately, I don´t have the ability to work with a 3D modelling software to rebuild or modify the existing model.

If there´s somebody out there who´s got the time and patience to rework the conning tower, I´ll gladly provide drawings, photos and at least two boxes of Beck´s beer!

Cheers, Kurfürst
