[REL]Drakkhen20 TypeVIIB skin

drakkhen20 · 02-26-11, 09:14 PM

ok this is my first skin, i finally got things straight on gamefront and figured out how to do all that stuff and here it is. its a base sh3 skin that i tried to make authentic from photos and some research. you wont really notice a diffrence in the gray paint but i also used authentic colors as far as the main paint. enjoy.

Many thanks!

Only for VIIB or also for VIIC?

Best regards.

i have one for the VIIC coming up. the diffrences is in the flooding vents and the exhuast ports. i did that to simulate the length because the VIIC is alittle longer than the B and it looks better for the C and i also redid them because i got tired of looking at a flat exuast pipe looking thingy with a little textured black smoke, really makes the boat unrealistic for me when looking at an angle. i still have to do some rivet work and the paint for it, it too is based for early war and thats why the exuast port is diffrent. the VIIB's exuast for the beginning of the war was shaped as in my skin from most of the photos i've seen. so when you start a new career i had that in mind. but as you know i've been back and forth with the enviroment mod i'm working on and this. i completed this skin like 4 months ago and never thought about releasing it because of all the other awsome skins that others had made, but i decided to say what the hay and put it out there for download. sorry about the long story. enjoy the skin.

oh to answer your question, thats up to you. its basicly a sh3 stock skin and sh3 shares that skin between the two( type VIIB and C)in the files. so yes.

Any screenshots you can post? I'm always looking for VIIB skins to try out.

See the "Hull" TGA for an idea of the skin.

Best regards.

Of course.
But it's up to the modder to promote his work showing a screenshot. I mean, of course PS users can open .tga files, but other people can't. Plus, well, let's admit there's a difference between staring at the skin file and looking at the model skinned properly in game.

Well put mate....a screenshot is always the best way to display/describe what is on offer.

sweet. i finally figured it out on how to post them in the post.

if you all knew how slow it is to upload screenies through a tether on your cell phone.... its like asking and athlete to breathe through a straw while running a marathon. but i'll post some more as they upload.

like i've stated there really isnt a diffrence in the whole look between sh3 stock and this one. just the flood holes really. i plan on making a late war one with dunkelgrau 52. fubar got me stuck on that look with his skins. love the color and found out that some typeVIICs had that paint but i can't remeber if the Bs did.

Hi drakkhen20,

Good job!

I have a question.
Can you make this skin as U-307?
Thanks.
