There's a good T26 analysis here about the sheer amount of money being poured into a ship that will apparently just inherit most of its systems from the retiring T23 fleet and one here on the putative T31 and the National Shipbuilding Strategy. In that vein, here's the latest offering for the Type 3...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cd91z7zhdcmgdj4/Type_26%20Template%20V4_LH.png?dl=1 The two Pacific 24 mk.4 ribs are stored behind the roller doors on the sides, as far as I'm aware. The LH side of the T26 has two doors, one located as far aft as the hangar is so I believe the hangar must fit along the c...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/4j6o4mo804cssdm/Type_26%20Template%20V4.png?dl=1 Cheers for the feedback :D My reasoning with the shading is that my source material displays the flare of the bow as being fairly sharp, hence a lot of shadow around below the front superstructure (see here ). I'll see how I...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/jgrmm3xhw8bqrdt/Norfolk%20Template%20V2.png?dl=1 Blackbuck , you're completely right, minor scaling issue lengthwise - I've sorted it now, the ship is the right length. Hood , thanks - I've sorted out doors/hatches, but having had a look around I can't find a newer Lynx an...

It's such a fantastic reference, I hope I can do justice to it. As a first start, I've done HMS Norfolk as pictured, as she was in 1999. If the basics are okay I'll modify the design for Westminster accordingly. Here's a first draft: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wa1k1u3ujyx67l6/Kent%20Template%20V1.png...

Haha :roll: almost unbelievably useful, some would say ... I rescaled your reference drawing to the right length and put mine on top ... by stretching just the hull 4 pixels, it matches up almost exactly. Looks like the main area they disagree is the height of the bow at the front. https://www.dropb...
