Having studied the model a lot, I believe that a good start could be done with a P-Class resized in a powerful 3D editor like 3DSmax or similar and then reworked in the bow and stern areas. For the conning tower the already existing ones are good enough, it's the hull what needs to be made new :hmm: Sadly I lack the skills and the software to do the task myself, otherwise I would have happily started already.

given a correct detailed blueprint and the hull model to go from I can do that.

but as I am finishing our IJN subs, patience is in order..

As I recall, someone already made this model, but it's sitting rusting somewhere. Can't remember the name of the guy who posted about it, but should be on the search function.

Isn't there a Narwhal in FOTRS? If it's by AOTDMadMax is gotta be pretty damn good.....off to reinstall FOTRS and check....

It was just a Perch or Salmon with a new gun platform over it, and anyway it wasn't available in a reasonably good shape.

The real model should be the one in your sig ? Strange torps tubes positions but i like the shape/design

The one I'm thinking about just had the new 3D model made for it, but was never rigged up and put in the game. Which one are you thinking of?

Yeah that was it, I couldn't remember his name and I never looked at the model. So it was a re-model of an existing sub, without matching? Shame. :-(. You don't have any pics by any chance do you?
