The clock is of good quality. We would need to decide on the text and the engraver said he could convert a photoshop image of a submarine to an engraved image. I used Pathercules image as an example, it has a nice side profile of a sub heading toward a sunset.

Pather, do you have a high res bmp of that image?

Neal, may I add one thing ?

Can you please use a picture with his favourite boat.
USS Seadragon, Sargo Class.

I made him a special skin for him which he loved from the beginning.
I think sqk7744 made a special kill flag on the tower for him.

Nice Job Neal, very elegant and reflective of the community.
I think the text should be classy but not too over the top. Something short and remarkable.

The sub picture by Panthercules is perfect, with the substitution that Foo made i think is a great touch.

Nice job guys under less than favorable circumstances

I look forward to contributing.

Such true statements by Reallydedpoet and Doolan. He was so talented, and always willing to help ALL members regardless of their experience. Quick to throw in a joke and always kept things light. What always amazed me about Dave was his relentless pursuit of perfection for his work along with his never ending optimism.

Nice work Neal,

it does make you think though - why is it always the nicest people that life does the most un-nicest things too?

You just read my mind

Definately a good choice Neal.

Digital_Trucker · 01-09-08, 05:18 PM

Yes, not to sound like an echo, but excellent choice

I agree with Foo that it would be a nice touch to use Dave's sub for the screenshot to be turned into an engraving. We, indeed, do still have his latest updated sub skin on the BattleFlags.net server. It is available at http://battleflags.net/killflags/leo...H%20HI-RES.rar

I can't get any higher that 1680x1050 for resolution, but I'll take a few shots for you to consider if you want to use his sub for the plaque.

Fish40 · 01-09-08, 05:20 PM

I agree

Very classy and fitting.

When the clock is done, we need to take a shot of it and hang it on the wall at the captain's office.

Mush Martin · 01-09-08, 06:17 PM

Nice choice Neal

clayp · 01-09-08, 06:21 PM

Count me in...I cant give much but I will give as much as I can..

Ok, how about setting up a series of shots using the Sargo, frame it similarly as the one below, sort of a 3/4 shot heading to a nice sunset. If you can, hide the interface using the 'period' key, and pull up a little tighter, right. If you can save as bmp or png and zip, send to subsim@subsim.com

That would be a nice touch.

Neal, just sent you a couple shots to take a look at. I took them before I saw your post, but I think they're fairly close to what you were looking for.
