Very good progress indeed.
Jungle RAF choppers and Scimitars with 1,000lb bombs! Cool stuff, this is was carrier warfare is about. You can keep all your Supercarriers!
Great top-down views too, I've only ever done one and its not easy!

Well I had once consdiered drawing the Tiger but I felt the photos and plans available were so poor it would be nigh on impossible. I had to eyeball the 6in turrets trying to use the available online Tiger sources but it confirmed my opinon that doing the whole ship would be a nightmare. Bombhead ha...

Great stuff. We love all kinds of vessels from ocean going battlewagons to Admiral's launches. Anyting you wish to draw to fill out the real ships section of Shipbcket is more than welcome. The rule with helicopters is; display them above the ship if there is no hangar, one the helipad if there is a...

Great work, good looking ships with that 1950s charm of big auto guns and big radars. The last of the pre-minuturised electronics ships. A real trip down memory lane. Why they added those hideous hangars and helipads still confounds me. You can't really make an ASW cruiser label stick to something t...

Interesting concept. I won't comment on the midships flightdeck.... but it looks more well though out with sponsoned out guns etc and much lower superstructure. Love the Blue missiles too! I have a feeling that the boosters may have been smaller/ omitted due to the shorter range to be travelled etc....

I like this, a very interesting design concept for the Dutch Navy. Great backstory too and the ship looks about right, being different but well proportioned and being a proper cruiser when she needs to be.
Great for the DEI fleet.

Great work Bill. One minor critique though, you should use the newer Type 901 I drew for the RN Parts sheet since the one you've used is from Unknown's work and is far removed from what it really looks like. An interesting design although I agree about the poor use of space etc. Topweight is an issu...

6in automatics.
GW96A was the biggest of the Seaslug cruisers. Nearly got built but they got all penny-pinchy and built the County Class instead.

Like I said it needs a redraw...

The only worth commentng on is Nimrod. Why did it take so for the government to cancel the MRA.4 programme? It's been dragging on for over a decade, on and on and on and on, money being wasted all over the place and poor management. I don't think the overall idea was that bad but somewhere along the...

Don't you think other navies don't have accidents?

Subs are bashing into stuff all the time...
The fact its brand-new and costs a billion pounds is just bad luck for the skipper's career!
