I'm interested to see what you come up with. I'm using a mod from a few years ago that added a newspaper and such to the top of the bed. Let us see what you come up with please.

I have a question here.

Are these mods only for type VII U-booten or can they be applied to type IXs as well?
I use only type IX boats and I would like a change to the captain's cabin.
Thank you.

You can change the Druck_Radio_9 file for the type IX u-boat which allows you to change the bed cover/pillow and the beer boxes under the bed. It also allows you the change the picture on the wall in the radio room.

Here is what I came up with so far:

Lets start with the Radio Room:





German Pin-up girl for the boys to look at...



Started with a magazine Die Kreigsmaine and added the Kreigsmaine eagle printed onto the Captains blanket, for a more lived in look.



Changed the Beer to Heineken, a beer that the U-boat men drank.



Then added the Captain's jacket to give it that final touch...

I hope you like what I did, this was done to the Type 9 boats so far. I will start with the 7's next and then the 2's.

I admit that Heineken's and Beck's labels look very similar on a b/w image...


Maybe it's dutch Beute-Pils ?

Do you think the jacket is too big, should it be made a little smaller?

No, it seems about right. I just put my coat down on my twin bed and it matches up well with the one in your picture.
