I had been toying with ideas on amphibious assault for a while, and this challenge gave me the oportunity to solidify them. Unfortunately, it took me until 5 days before the challenge was due to determine the exact size and composition of the landing force, which determined how big the ship is, but ...
De Schelde SD 777 Bolwerk The program culminating in the SD 777 Bolwerk started in 1957, and was intended to supplement and eventually replace the previous Beest universal tank from the late 1940s. It was envisioned to act as organic support in the Batavian Mechanized Infantry Divisions like the pr...
Thank you for the warm comments everyone. For the 3D radar, SPS-48 would've probably been the more sensible option from the start, but as I said I wanted to avoid a predominance of US equipment. The location on the platform, while ungainly, means I can avoid noxious gas turbine exhaust alltogether. ...
To the detriment of my other projects, I was very hyped when this idea came up, so of course I dropped everything and cooked something up. At first I wanted to do a fictional ship with "equivalent" systems, but after a couple of days I found an interesting subject I could develop. With the disbandme...
The drawing is great but I feel you could specialize it more, adding something like Mk.10 on the back and Mk.13 on the bow instead of the ASROC, to make it a proper AA cruiser.
Alternatively, add a proper helo deck and hangar for better ASW performance.
I'm so glad you decided to come back and finish her. One thing I noticed is that the foremost machine gun on the deck edge walkways seems to be cut off. On that same section, further aft, we should be able to see the top of the MGs on the other side. Minor remarks of course, the drawing is wonderful...
A great effort, and of a boat that has been missing from SB for long. Shading is not my style and could use some definite reworking in, for example, the extreme bow, where the part atop the waterline is highlighted but below the waterline is shaded. If it was me doing this following the 45° rule, pr...
A Tyne tug built in 1882, she was sold to a company in Russia two years later.
