New Skin I would like modded for U-99

U-5000 · 11-18-07, 10:40 PM

Saw these pictures of U-99 and know some of you experienced modders might like tackling this and I would like it as its Otto Kretchmers U-99 most famous of all.
I love the colors and the rust job would be great on this boat. Going to post some pictures to give you an idea of how it is painted. Would really enjoy this to use. thanks to who ever tackles this.

Let me finish Tomi_099 U-408 winter camo. I'll see what I can do ok. Its a VIIB right?.:hmm:

I'll try to see if there is some real photos of the boat U-99 online. You could check some of my U-boats I believe my latest VIIC Standard is very similar to your image.

U-5000 · 11-18-07, 11:24 PM

Yes its a VIIB I would have to look and see what that VIIC_standard is i have it but would have to check . Here is a picture of the VIIC_standard that I have.

The black deck is a very nice touch in my opinion

someone will have to make this emblem for U-99 for you.

So I will do my best to restore her!

U-5000 · 11-22-07, 08:38 PM

I like in the picture of U-99 how U99 is painted on side of conning tower this would be a nice feature if we had a list of Uboat #'s that we could use on our subs. Like all of them is this possible to do or not? I do like the sub which skin is that by the way.

Wolfehunter · 11-22-07, 08:46 PM

UVmapping doesn't make it look good I could try and hope it doesn't show up somewhere else.

U-5000 · 11-22-07, 08:53 PM

Do what you think best Wolfhunter but I am sure most would like to use with whichever U-boat they using at this moment in campaign I am using U-45 with a commander called Kurt Dietrich

and racking up 69,947 on first patrol of war on a 40 day cruise in the Bay of Biscay

U-5000 · 11-23-07, 10:37 PM

Just wondering Wolfhunter how is things going with the skin for U-99 I am sure you been enjoying Thanksgiving but just curious to know how the skin looks. thanks U-5000

Wolfehunter · 11-23-07, 11:16 PM

Working on the deck I was looking at the video above to see If I could use anything and its all too blury. Then I found this link in Youtube,

I was wondering if Racerboy could use some of the effects here.

I've noticed that when water touches or goes near the exhaust holes something happens. Either hot steam shoots out because of the metal being hot, or hot fumes pressure forces some of the ocean water to spray out?:hmm:

There is the canon and flak sounds from the warship very cool to hear and see.

Anyhow I'm working on your boat don't worry be patient good thing come to those who wait.

Good hunting.

Wolfehunter · 11-29-07, 08:12 AM

Ah-ha its starting to look like something. Needs some more work. I feel confortable to show some teaser pics. Really rusty and used. I have to work more on the rust. Right now some rust parts are blob like. Some minor textures work I have to do and some fine tuning needed here and there.

Enough talking take a peek.

Pretty weathered..

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...r/U99shot4.jpg
She coming to life.... So close master

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...r/U99shot3.jpg
Nice rear-end....

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...r/U99shot2.jpg
She's been abused.

http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/f...r/U99shot1.jpg
Yup comming alone nicely.

So tell me what you think. Add your 10cents and I'll see what I can do to with the final touchups needed.

I'm resting now my eye's are going to explode. Need sleep. arrrgh.

linerkiller · 11-29-07, 08:36 AM

wow....could you create also the VIIC version of this beast?

Dowly · 11-29-07, 10:40 AM

Hmm... long time since skinned an uboat and ran out of planes to skin for IL2.. just might give this a try. :hmm: Never hurts to have two options.
