ORIGINAL: Terminus

This is just my take on it, but I think the sharpened sides look too "defined" somehow. Not to my taste.


I kind of like them. My old eyes generate enough "fuzzy" as it is and a little sharpness offsets it nicely.

I'll second that. The originals are, at least to my younger eyes, better [:D]

Sorry scottott999, but they have the muzzel on us pretty tight! I wish I could, cause I'm having MS/dazzle/schemes/artwork withdrawals!!!

Not any hope for a bark....even a growl hurts!!!!

Hope is not lost, though, as the temptation may be too great for JWE!!!!![:)]

Well, maybe a couple little Dutchmen won't hurt. Here's Poolster and Arend

Everything is scaled now.

So if you want to add your sides, you'll have to do the entire sets.[:D]

Properly scaled, or the old (ship Lentghx0.165)+45 pixels length? You'd be surprised at how much stuff I've already got. [:)]

If by properly scaled you mean IRL linear scaling, that gets really ugly. The game art scale factor is [(loa x .165) + 45] (or sometimes 46 or 47 or so). And it's not just scale, it's also color velocities against standard backgrounds and the combat screen (which has been changed btw).

Cheers mate, that's what I've been doing my stuff to. So far I've got easily 200+ good ships sides that I've recently done plus another bucketload that are decent enough.

Empire Cadet Coastal Tanker

Post by Don Bowen »

For my personal collection (not related to AE). A British Empire Cadet class coastal tanker.

These small tankers were heavily used in the Far East in 1945, especially along the Burma coast. 202 foot overall, 193 waterline. Note that this is smaller than the US Navy YO-46 class "Yard" oiler.
