Hi shipbucket!! I'm new here, and here is both my first post and first try, it is not finished yet. It was hard to find info to draw these ships, but they were among the few modern HN ships not yet made, as far I could search, otherwise I have made a fool of my self

more here!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSY-55_class_gunboat

Few points to a good start

*shading of the bridge wings
*there is a winch behind the forwards gun
*I assume you haven't finished the sides yet as some stuff is missing
*The ship is much to high, it should be moved down considerably
*your artist name(generally your username) should be under the ship's name in brackets and the writing should be not a pixel haze
*Last point is just a neat point-the orange border needs to be removed

Otherwise, great to see more people doing Real designs!

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Moved to beginners drawing forum

Iwas expecting some kind of help, but since I told you it is not finished yet, what is the point of pointing out the obvious again and again? As for the hight, as far as I can see, it is not far off, I include a picture you know.

Hello and welcome! I think he meant the placement of the drawing on the template, rather than the actual height of the boat.

Jabba you're right, I meant placement, I didn't word that too well

also, you have to use the new OTO 76 drawing, and I can't place the director you have on board..... and you have an antenna floating in the air. also, your aft gun is of the wrong type, so is the crane you put on.

anyways, good start and a good choice for a first ship.

Thanks! Then the parts in the main page are obsolete, I managed to find some posts in the forum, but I can't find the new parts, can you show me where? Here is what I have done so far. Also these ships change their equipment all the time, here is a newer picture:

the image won't load for me....
indeed, the parts on the main site are obsolete. I (and quite a lot other people) are working on renewing it.
I think the gun is still wrong, the picture I found showed an open mount. also, I think you can best draw your own crane with the pics, as this one looks faulty as well... although better then the old one.
you have quite a lot of shapes outlined in grey, if they stand out of the hull (as is the case here, IIRC) they need to be outlined in black.
anyway, it is getting better, keep up the good work, but watch out: it is still far from finished

Sorry for the spamming, but since this is my first drawing , I need to know...
The P61 has an enclosed bofor on the quarterdeck, but for the sake of argument here is the current update...
