It would be great to just be able to walk in there. That should motivate someone.

Well, i may be able to do the engine room for the IXd2, id do the XVIII, but have no idea of who that room would look, pm me if i should do the model for it

Hay Gunney !!

Let's go slow approach and the fact that only quit
hort engine room is very interesting, but let us finish this first!

and a little sharpen - with more structure, and a little brighter








I think we can leave and so the smaller object to go, I think that was now also the most difficult part because it represents the overall picture.
....It was also my 13 trial!

Massive improvements in the textures.

Excellent work Tomi_99!!!

Are the interiours fully authentical ?

You can see the position of the beds in the middle, torps, the loading/escape hatch and a few details such as the batteries (hence the hatches on the floor) and that sort of things.
For the smaller details I only had 2 low-res pics of a real type II so I used mostly pictures of the Finnish Vesikko found on google images and here : http://www.dutchsubmarines.com/pictu...es_vesikko.htm
The torpedo tubes mechanism are only roughly reproduced and the pipes & electric cables are a mix of guessing + finding solutions that didn't cause me too much headaches.
Overall it should look pretty with a the right lighting, we'll see :hmm:

an idea: if more precise and detailed pictures of a type II torpedo room are needed, why not sending members of subsim there? we should have some finish guys here, who could visit the museum you mentioned above and make some more precise pictures... Also for other 3d projects, it should be possible to send some guys to local museums all over the world for taking pictures. i could make tons of pictures of u995 in laboe, near kiel (VIIC boat), for example.
