Hello Magic1111.

No problem, I can do.

As for color, was green or red?

Exploring the net, I came across this interesting picture of the U-96, in bull blowing the 7th Flotilla:

Is this a Type-VIIB?

The color of sawfish from U-96.

This is a good topic for discussion, there is much controversy about the color of this symbol.

This is a good site in Spanish, which summarizes in a way which were the colors used, but equally there are many accurate or inaccurate information:

http://www.u-historia.com/uhistoria/...sh/sawfish.htm

I hope you help me on this subject, to perform in a way, as accurate as possible the color of this fish ...

Hey Nozaurio,
Great detail on the skins but is there a possibility of combinding your detail skins with Danevangs coloured skins

@Magic

you gave a reference;

U-96 was an Type VIIC Sub (http://www.uboat.net/boats/u96.htm) and have an black sawfish ! The green sawfish was the emblem from the 9th U-Boat-Flotilla in Brest (http://www.uboat.net/special/emblems/u96.html).

Your reference listed dosen't say anything about U96 having a black sawfish theres that conjection, lol But if I were a punter and based on the darkness of the emblem against the sails grey colour and the B/W photo, IMO I'd agree that it was Black or a very dark grey, but this is not a reference, and its only my opinion

Yes, but in my opinion we don´t have better references, because I think it don´t exist color photos from real U-96 sub. We see it on historical black-white photos and we have as reference the movie "Das Boot". In the movie "Das Boot" the sawfish is black (the movie based on real-patrols from U-96). The Roman-Author Lothar-Günther Buchheim was in WW2 in the rank on a "Leutnant" War-journalist and drive 2 or 3 partrols with U-96 under Commander "Heinrich Lehmann-Willenbrock" (here a picture from him on U-96, with beard: http://www.google.de/imgres?imgurl=h...%3Disch&itbs=1



Best regards,
Magic

Faz apologize if I did not answer before...

I need to raise a lot of information on these camouflage.

I have some information in my database, but do not possess sufficient information to make these skins.

I will contact Danevang, to authorize me to use their skins as database and so I can make different camouflage used in the U-boat VIIC.

Greetings ...
