Special request. There were a few S-Boats before the war done up in full dazzle camouflage. I'd love to have that available for the game with a sugar boat! I mean the whole bold in your face dazzle job!

Hey Rock, hows it goin?

SubRon 14 will become SubDiv 14 and SubRon 7 will activate in Pearl and SubRon 21 in Australia... we are growing!

great improvement, looks just REAL

I think it is a general yes to the very bold style of Razzle Dazzle shown in those pics rather then one specific design.

Really, true Dazzle was a WWI type camo. It was used to some extent in WWII of course but not to the garish extent that it was in WWI. (look at the red/blue destroyer in my sig!)

This is a good link that describes many Dazzle "systems" or schemes, good stuff starts on page 19: LINK Also on page 57 they discuss Submarine camo schemes.

Last time I was in this thread, the request for a sugar - dazzle skin was like the last post.

Off I went all excited about a skinning project, when I realized today that ichso was also working on a dazzle s-class. A very similar boat skin.

I should have checked with you ichso...I apologize for that.
