"Anyway, think we've beaten this one to death by now." - so now I hope you will do the original 4C some day (or some other Brooklyn prelims) :D hehe.

Very nice drawings in this thread as well btw as usual.

Well most of the paper designs and non-historical upgrades are falling into the same category in the game, with a hefty dose of artistic license taken. They actually have a real shipbuilding engineer on their staff so probably they are not so far off. In case of 4C it was a preliminary sketch design...

Hi Colo, I've reached out to my contacts in St Petersburg and although they used some artistic license the design is pretty real and in fact pretty close to the drawing. The only major difference is that they have used a mixed triple-twin main battery layout (instead of all twins) and 5"/38 guns/tur...

Brilliant, just brilliant!!! Hope you will do 1-2 more ;), like Brooklyn in ms 12 mod early war. On the 3rd turret facing aft: IMHO it could be trained fully forward, the reason why it was stored facing aft is for ease of maintenance and also less spray and water corrosion on the sensitive gun barre...

Thanks all. I'd like to do more of these but time is extremely scarce these days. When did you draw your original Brooklyn? I think you also did the Belgrano too. The originals were drawn around this time in 2012 (6 years ago!) I also drew the General Belgrano. They're all available here , along wi...

Amazing work as usual! Hope you will do some others from this class, actually there were at least 2-3 variants from the late war units that would worth a drawing alone. BTW are you sure the HONOLULU did get the same rebuild as SAVANNAH? Wasn't it just the superstructure change (which was BTW done to...

"My main focus is to draw warships that participated in the Guadalcanal campaign." - sounds very good! Do you have list that you may want to share what are in the plans? Do you do US side only or IJN as well?

Absolutely lovely! You paid attention nicely to the different barbette. Can't wait to see the other early war ships. Are you going to do the rebuilds as well?
