here I don't read spanish. But I can figure it out hehehe.
I saw that bulge up top, but unfortunately, without an actual IA model, there isn't anything we can do about that. The bulge that I was referring to is the saddletanks, the fuel tanks on the side of the u-boat at the waterline. The U-33 did have these as it was a type 7, all type 7's had these. But from all the pictures I have found, the type IA did not.

So, do I take that interesting scheme from the "U-33" for the U-25, or stay realistic and take the semi-boring 2 tone approach. I'm working on this now, and I'm to the point where I have to make a choice. I'm leaning toward realistic 2 tone for it, but welcome opinions.

*Update*
After several more hours trying to get the lines on turmc_1 to line up correctly, I still haven't gotten it close to what I think would be acceptable... it irritates me that the ubisoft skin format messes up a really good skin. I'm going to try it with a type 7 later, but I'm giving this up for tonight. The pillows are calling my name.
