Love this skin!! A beautiful and faithful rendition of a real boat.

I much prefer the accurate historical based look over the fantasy or camo type skins.

Thanks very much for sharing this!!

Hi Yamato,

Superb work! Looks really authentic!

Would be great to have the 2nd Flotilla emblem on the front of the conning tower and Harald Lange´s shell emblem on the sides, but as far as I know, the way SHIII renders texture to the objects, this is not possible!

Thanks for giving us such a nice skin!

Jimbuna · 11-16-08, 12:03 PM

That would make a nice Monsun boat skin

Sailor Steve · 11-16-08, 03:22 PM

Looks awful! Get some sailors to work painting that thing, or I'll tell BdU!

Naw, looks fantastic, mate! Awfully weathered - just like the real thing.

Yes, i tryed to add shell emblem on sides but without any better result so i deleted them from texture. Maybe one day some good modder whoud make 3d CT of type IX compatible with adding emblems on frontal portion of tower. I wonder who could do this.....hmmm

Castout@ nice to se you here after long time.

Thanks

Hi Yamato,

I found these two pictures from U-861, a IX D2 Monsun boat under the command of Jürgen Oesten, returning from Southeast Asia to Trondheim in Norway on the 19th of April 1945. Interesting to see how "worn-out" the boats looked after those long patrols,
far from shiny and new!

It looks pretty good.

There's a photo of U-190 on page 115 of Another Place, Another Time by Werner Hirschmann which shows the boat returning to Lorient from an African patrol on June 20th, 1944. The caption reads that the salt corrosion was so severe that you could poke your fingers through the metal in places. I saw your boat & it made my think of that photo.
