got the scope not to stick out of the bottom, but they do stick out of their wells. It is strange since they don't appear half that long in 3ds...

hmmm, its too bad my modeling skills aren't that great, or else i would put something for that poor sailor at the wheel to sit on!

also, it might just be me, but did anyone else notice the tower model has a messup around one of the front windows?i looked into it on both blender and misfits modeling and its just too hard to get to, its better to leave it the way it is...unless the almighty keltos fixed that too

we used the bad one for the 2.6 version you got to start working on the texture, the window stuff was fixed in verion 2.5, a new version 2.6 is in my FF in the Jyunsen B group - not yet available for all to download,

we had two sets of periscopes in place, Peabody fixed them so that now we have the correct set showing, and no tubes stiking out of the bottom. Set both scopes at -0.25, now they are in their respective wells, and don't show under the boat anymore. This was a real pain and I couldn't fix it ! Thanks Peabody

here's the version with scopes at 0.05 :





and at -0.25 :




notice that the hull is now red, which is whet I saw on most model kits of japanese subs, unlike my first one which was green (i liked it)


now I have to reset perscope depth to 54 feet (18 m) for the scope to show, which is ok cause the japanese had notoriously short periscopes :rotfl:

The driver will get a chair in the future

at 16.8 the periscope depth looks ok to me, in rough weather the scopes would be submerged part of the time, normal to me.

just got some good sources for the skin i'm gonna do for the jyundsen.

i'm going to use a lighter gunmetal gray for the hull, and maroon red for the bottom hull, i'm going to remove the I-25 symbol, since we won't all get I-25, and, have a pine-y looking wood deck

sound good to you?
