Thx to Nisgeis USS Torsk 423 sails again

Nisgeis apparently used the photos I provided and was able to create this photo realistic skin. Even down to the dent she sports on the bow. We have a new modder here fellas

IT ROCKS! Now some paint on the sail or maybe she looks cool just like this!

any chance with a photoreal normal tex (without the torsk jaw?? although it looks great)for all those unlucky captians without the torsk??

a great skin! Now we need a photo realistc looking skin for standard boats..

Shouldn't the bridge be light gray like the sides of the hull? A black superstructure would be easy to spot on the horizon.

Other than that, I really like the skin and the realistic metal look.

Work in progress! Nesgies put in over 10 hours on this alone. I PM'd him on getting the sail gray as well and the dive plans as they look a bit blue.

As a side note, he did use the photo and was able to get the photo realisitic look. Look closely at the bow and see the weld lines. Also the dent she has in the bow. See the indentation on the metal skin from pressure of the water and normal wear. Very cool way to make as skin really. If Nesgies is up to it, perhaps some other colored photos of subs could be used.

I think once he has the basic skin without the painted mouth he could probably start replicating it to other boats.

I woud like to download it just as a generic skin without anything extra added to the bow or bridge. I definitely noticed the weld lines and dents.
