A Seatiger skin would be great for my fav boat, the Gato class. In fact i'd run that in any class...being female it would suit me well.

As for a tower mod, I was thinking of a Bewitched animation from the tv show, i will try to find one, but instead of her sitting on her broom it would nice if she could be riding a torpedo....you may not be aware of that US late 1960's tv show.

Found one, but would only like her, not the writing or buildings....don't even need a torpedo. I may be able to find a better one.

Gato Class rgr. Bewitched riding Torp. Gotcha. I was born in the early seventies and watch the show's reruns.

How's this for the logo for the Conning tower?

@ Gryphon:

The Stingray conning tower looks great, but it has the damn classic problem with the texture:

The same problem is in the Kill Flags Mod.

I use TMO 22, and with the TMO Emblem submod, I haven´t the problem. It will be great discover a solution with that odd texture in the conning tower.

About the Sea Tiger, from Wikipedia:

"USS Sea Tiger was a fictional submarine presumably named for the barracuda. No vessel of the United States Navy has been given that name, but the 1959 movie Operation Petticoat, starring Cary Grant and Tony Curtis, and the short-lived 1977-1978 television series of the same name, were set aboard a fictional Sea Tiger. According to the movie's dialogue, Sea Tiger was commissioned in 1940.
The name may come from the actual WWII-era submarine USS Sealion (SS-195), which like its film counterpart, was sunk at the pier at Cavite Navy Yard, the Philippines, on 10 December 1941 with the loss of 5 crewmembers.
The Sea Tiger in the movie was portrayed by three different American Balao-class submarines:
Queenfish (SS-393), in the opening and closing scenes (circa 1959), in which the "393" on the conning tower is visible,
Archerfish (SS-311), for all the WWII scenes where the boat was painted the standard gray and black,
Balao (SS-285), for all the scenes in which Sea Tiger was painted pink."

Best regards!

That Bewitched emblem looks great, would that go on the front of the tower or both sides?

Sorry the skin is ffor a Balao class submarine. If you want it in a different class. Please name the class.

FADM Gryphon · 08-12-11, 11:57 PM

Unorthodox Naval Shipyard's second skin the USS SEAWITCH (SS-1692). CAPT donna52522 here's a pic of your boat in the game.

FADM Gryphon · 08-13-11, 09:54 AM

Just a note the skins I have done so far are balao class submarine skins.

FADM Gryphon · 08-14-11, 11:24 AM

If anyone can teach me how to make the texture for the skin on the sub I will be able to make the USS SEATIGER next.

No Problem it was fun to make. A side note was that I had to get help to screen capture the stringray logo from the DVD as there was none with a straight on shot of it on the web.

Thank you Capt

. Thinking of doing a USS Gryphon. I also need to experiment with the other classes of submarines. As well as taking all the grey surfaces and making them pink to do a USS SEATIGER from Operation PETTICOAT. I can make the grey surfaces pink but I lose all the textures in the dds file that makes it look like metal.
