Show us your Conning Tower Emblems

Lzs von swe · 03-30-08, 09:28 AM

Hi all.
May I ask if someone could make an emblem out of this for me?

According to UboatAces http://www.uboataces.com/ref-insignia4.shtml it is one of the emblems U-53 used.
I guess it should be a red heart on an transparent background but the rest is up to you.
If any of you graphical wizards could help I would be a happy Swede

The torpedo in the original pic looks a bit like a missle, but for the sake of consistency I kept it the same.

A gif file and a jpeg file. Not sure which works best when it comes to targa file conversion.

That was quick, thank you very much

It seems like .gif´s works best when converting to .tga´s.
Of course it was pitch dark but heres a quick look at it in game.

I probably should have given it a bit of character.

Good one, Torplexed

Is the one to the right doable? Please

The original black & white art is rather sketchy and vague in parts, so I did the best interpretation I could..

The result is a vaguely threatening gentleman in a homburg with an umbrella. On well. Good luck!
