[POLL] Sub Pinups and Pics

[I'm goin' down]

fred, you aim at our senses. Music files to make us deaf sooner and pics that are intended to slowly blind us. I have already had to get rid of the bowling pins my girlfriend threw at me.

Wait'll you see that "possible new set" I'm thinking about doing.

I've never liked the stock pinups; they look like Elvgren pinups that actually date from the 1950's. I was thinking on putting up a mod that has period correct ones- particularly the ones from the Armed Services magazines of the period and from the Esquire Magazines- i.e. Vargas pinups.

Actually the stock game pinups are all by Al Buell. His career was from the 1930s to the '60s, so it's possible the images used are post war.

Just FYI, I have copies of all but one of the game pinups in my Buell CDP set.

I stand corrected. Al Buell.

Where is your mod to be found? And if someone recalls the USN's service magazine of WW2, that would help. I know the soldiers read "Yank" but not sure what the navy got to read. "Stars And Stripes", I suppose.

EDIT: I found "All Hands", but it looks like it's first publishing date was 1944. Unfortunately it's a "bulletin" more than a full on service men's magazine, as "Yank" certainly was.

Yank Magazine Pinup of MM: Very nice. This is what I'm thinking about. I also have a link to a 'retro erotica' site that has reams of hi res nudie pinups for the captains who are not prudish.

when I was a kid, my dad, a former Marine who saw action on Saipan, had the famous Playboy centerfold of Marilyn Monroe inside the door to the cabinet where we kept the telepnone book. It lasted a week. My mother took it down.

It's available here in the SH4 downloads in the Graphics/Pinups section. It's the Captain's Desk Photos 27 set. You can also click the link in my sig for other download locations.

Well, I guess this is as good a time as any to let the cat out of the bag. That "possible new set" I mentioned in the poll post is exactly that: nudie pics.

When I was getting the pics for my loading screen background mod, I came across the topless art pinup one sub had. And it occurred to me that subs could, and did, have stuff that was way more risque than the office would. So I started looking for nude pics. I figured I should be able to find *some* on the Internet.

I too found a site that specialized in the old stuff, and grabbed about 8000+. That not only includes the '40s, but before and after too. They don't have specific dates, so I can only remove the most obvious post war ones. My only question now is whether to do them first, or the SFW sets first.

PM me the link you have. I might take a look at it too.

Yes, I found your mod. Nice work; I've replaced the Captain's desk photos before and was thinking on something different.

I was wondering about replacing the pinups on the submarine interior(s). They appear to be part of the internal .dds files. Much more challenging than replacing the desk photos,
