Hello again! D’Estienne d’Orves-Class corvettes DPs excellent rendition of Commandant Lavallée motivated me to complete an unfinished project (which lay idle at 90% for a year, my bad, no excuse...). The A69-type aviso was designed to replace the E50/52 frigates, representing a shift in French naval...

Hello everyone! For a WW I challenge, I'll always come out of retirement. It's a complete redo of the ship's entry in the Thiariaverse thread; her particulars have been adapted to fit the new exterior. LT Urgharda http://shipbucket.com/wiki/images/4/4a/CA_Urgharda_1909.png Laid down in 1903 and 1904...

Hello everyone and a happy new year to all! My two cents for this challenge: Not entirely new, but fits the specs like a glove. Yakovlev Yak-39 ‘Fungus/Mushroom’ During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Yakovlev built a series of unsuccessful VTOL designs, culminating in the Yak-38 of 1974. Their main...

Hi all! E50/E52-class escorts Soon after the war, the French ordered eighteen new destroyers and eighteen escorts to rebuild their ravaged fleet and replace the extant mix of 1920s and 1930s veterans, handed down allied ships, and axis prizes. The frigates resembled the contemporary US Dealey class ...

Hello everyone That class needed a redraw anyway... Caithreim, Thiarian Navy Conlan-class Battleship The history of this class started in the late 1920s. Thiaria's economy, which had experienced a recession during the mid-1920s (the 'roaring twenties' were something that happened to other people), c...

Hello again Commandant-Rivière-Class frigates This class resulted from De Gaulle’s priority shift from a NATO-first to a France-first strategy. Instead of their single-purpose convoy escort predecessors of the E50/52 type, these somewhat larger frigates were designed primarily for intervention in Fr...

Hi all

That's what I've got so far in terms of modern french parts. It's very incomplete and subject to revision at any time. As soon as it's complete, I'll also add text without anti-aliasing, promise.

Hi everyone!

OK the Smart-S overlook was embarrassing (typical, my wife would say...).

I revamped the SPG-51s by hand from a photograph, hope you like them. I'm assembling a French parts collection anyway, which will contain them.

Cheers
GD
