OK. We've got Scua. But we also should have Fairly Fulmar which became the staple air carrier fighter-bomber since late 1940, and definitely we need Barracuda. They were late for Midter, yet they were used to attack KMS Tirpitz.

This how the Southampton is now in my HD. I still need to tweak the damaged texture. Apart from that, it's ready. Bruno, massive research I guess to make those UDF's. Great work . Glowworm TB looks excellent. Here is a pic of it: |

@JapLance
On my machine your Southampton looks too brownish. My take is her colors should be more like gray, light blue, dark blue (navy). Southamptons (take HMS Sheffield for instance or HMS Manchester) were heavily used as escorts for capital ships. Now take your Southampton and counter impose her against QE. They will immediately loose their camo - brown rock on the blue and white backdrop of QE. Camo should hide, confuse, not expose.You know what I mean? I thinks this photo is more realistic in terms of color schema used for Town class light cruisers. This is HMS Belfast which is of the same parent Town class as Southampton. What do you think?

If you guys can wait about 3 hours I'll be posting the new camo for the TB 1935 as well as the reskin model of the British early war subs Clyde/Narwhal class.
It's also probably a good idea to take note of when these camo schemes were applied. We could probably have a single UDF but with models (and their applied camo schemes) that change throughout the war. That would really be cool. Hmmm... we seem to have 'hijacked' the thread for repaints! Not that I'm complaining Mountbatten |

BTW Bruno thanks for posting the UDFs for the Brit aircraft - I like the idea of using the Betty as a Welly and as soon as I'm done with your Mowe I'll see if I can get a few of those in the game.
Best wishes, Mountbatten |

@Mountbatten
These are UDFs which I used when I had machine to run SH2/DC. Those Wellies would fly all the way to Willemshafen and harass my Lochs boat fleet. Actually it did happen. I read about it in Denitz book. On the other side of the story Wellies suffered badly from Luftwaffe. This is the Fleet Air Arm archive where you can find info on the planes used by the Fleet Arm. Wellies are there http://www.fleetairarmarchive.net/Ai...craftindex.htm BTW, I love your camos. I can hardly see your ships on the pictured provided by JapLance. They are blended with the colors of the sea (or is it my video card?) That's the whole idea of war paint - hide and confuse. Re: It's also probably a good idea to take note of when these camo schemes were applied. We could probably have a single UDF but with models (and their applied camo schemes) that change throughout the war. That would really be cool. Very cool. One paint for HMS Southampton, another for HMS Sheffield or HMS Manchester and you can tell which ship is which just looking at their colors. @JapLance OK, I see. Perhaps I am biased. I just love the paint on HMS Belfast. With this kind of paint I understand how those ships like HMS Sheffield were used to escort capital ships. From distance camos of those ships would match up and you will get an effect of herd of zebras - you cannot distinguish individual animals. Hide or confuse. :hmm:

- Bruno
A long time ago we tried to realize a special mod to illustrate the game actions of the Italian assault team (Xa Mas). Among the anticipated missions there was also the forcement of the harbor of Alessandria. Unfortunately, problems risen in the use of the units employees (Maiali-Carriots) and the shortage of authors prepared to work in the project, has induced us to abdicate. We will draw profit from your file of transformation of the Beaufigter in Blenheim. This aircraft is more proper for to represent the events of the first period of the conflict in the Mediterranean theatre. - JapLance The new QElizabeth is very beautiful ! We will use it to the place of the original one. - Horsa With your permission we will insert in the mod the destroyers that you have painted, that I have already unloaded from your site. Thanks to everybody! |

Glowwormguy,
I tried to download your early british norwhal class submarine to see if I could make it work with Pacific Aces but it's no longer there? I think this would work considering I once took a sub from Alfa Tau & made it work with C. B. Med. Campaign? thank you Roy |

You may have to enlighten me a bit... I'm afraid I'm not sure about w/c sub you refer to (it has been, I confess, quite a while since I messed with subs). Is it the prewar minelayer sub class w/c included the Seal? Better yet could you let me know which page it's linked to? Hope I can help! Mountbatten
