Default [REQ] Frosted U-boats!

So I've noticed that in winter time not only do you see snow covered landscapes, but all of the surface ships are covered in frost and icicles, too. Is it possible (or rather would anyone be willing) to add a bunch of ice to our u-boats as well? Preferably ice that disappears when submerged... (I know the Real Fleet Boat guys pulled that off with AA guns, so it should be possible)

Not to take away from the post.. but the deck crew could also have warmer hats in winter, mittens and red frozen noses with snot-icicles.

yes but to be realistic, youd need to have it form over time and dissapear when underwater, because snow and icicles would melt most likely

Yes, but as far as I know it's probably impossible to get it to gradually form whereas it's real easy to make it disappear when submerged. The RFB crew had AA guns that disappeared when submerged because in real life US sub crews stowed the AA guns prior to submerging.
