Indeed, the railings are non-standard, and I would seriously contemplate making the mainmast 3-pixel thick, but generally it's a nice work. :) Making the mast 3-pixel thick would get an unrealistic scale effect... It’s always a compromise between reality and rules. I also proposed some Brazilian WW...

In 1984, the Brazilian Navy began a program to built 12 corvettes derivated from a German OPV project. The first of them, Inhaúma, was launched in 1986 and delivered to the Esquadra in 1989. They were succeeded by the Barroso, a one ship class that will be my next project: https://www.dropbox.com/s/...

The date is 1935 and the ship is in a Third World country to counter the Argentinian Admiral Brown heavy cruiser.

I agree the shading is better my questions would be, 1- why so much light AA on the first one (what's the date?) 2- would a float plane not be better on the earlier one? The date is 1935 and the ship is in a Third World country to counter the Argentinian Admiral Brown heavy cruiser. In all Argentin...

You need a 3-D radar for Terrier, e.g SPS-26 or SPS-39. I used Giuseppe Garibaldi design as a source. I'll look for a space for a SPS-26. Actually Garibaldi had early SPS-39 with SPS-26 antenna. I have search deep to it, because I plan to do a similar conversion to an heavy cruiser of my AU. Everyt...

In her 1944 refit she received 40 40mm guns in quadruple mounts and the remaining 20mm guns were substituted by 14 twin mounts and two single mounts. She received new directors. In 1955 all light guns were removed to give space for eight Bofors L70 twin mounts. In her 1965 refit, all main guns were ...
