    Sorry if this has been done but I think it would be awesome if evryone posted their best sinking pictures. I dont have any as my ship is under construction. From the ones i have been able to find sinking pics are in my opinion the coolest looking of them all. sunk wrecks aslo applies.
    :cool:

    Here's a random assortment...
    This first one is a lie - this ram won't sink the Maru, it just looks cool.

    The Westfalen on the bottom.

    There are two on the bottom here, should be the Maru (nearest) and the Westfalen.

    The Insufferable sinks in the murk - took a long time to find her.

    The Suffren always looks good while sinking.

    I think most of our best shots are already online somewhere. If not, I'll dig them up.

    Here is one of my favourites, now it is not mine, it belongs to Brian of the OAF.
    I looked for the link on this site but couldn't find it, so i went to the OAFs site.

    I still think this is awesome, even after seeing it many times.

    They look so peaceful on the bottom, don't they? A few moments earlier, full of rage and flying steel, and then.. silence.
