I have a hard time believing they would be fitted with anything but a 4.5" gun. They already have them in service and if they don't haven any in storage, they will once they're done decommissioning the type 22s. |

I disagree. That one has a "chip" on the upper casing, where there's a break in the roofline. The other one has no such chip and a steeper roof, as seen in the picture.
please name which one you call 'that one' and which who you disagree. and I see clearly an 76, I have just checked with my source material as well.Has anyone thought that BAe might have just told their modelers "We don't know yet, draw a gun that looks moderny"? |

although I agree it would be more logical to fit one of the BAE 4.5's, the image clearly shows an oto 76. ![]() carnac and colombimike, look at this and say again that it is the 127 lw, without lying? |

The front looks like the 76, I agree. But the roofline has the profile of the 127.![]() carnac and colombimike, look at this and say again that it is the 127 lw, without lying? edit: wait, I blew it up in paint.net and now I agree, I didn't see somehting I should have. |

I think the 127mm matches the drawing better, based on the roofline.Has anyone thought that BAe might have just told their modelers "We don't know yet, draw a gun that looks moderny"?
I Agree

The gun look like a 127edit: wait, I blew it up in paint.net and now I agree, I didn't see somehting I should have. Even the Turret size look like bigger than a 76 |

turret size is the only point I agree, colombimike. at least... the size of the barrel. but that could be simple modelling mistakes, while the rest looks EXACTLY like the 76? (see my last post) it is absolutely NOT the 127 LW. another proof? look at the back of the gun. ![]() ![]() I see a flat back, not the one of the 127. it is an mistake that is easily made, from a distance they look much alike, but at high res renders as these we can clearly see which gun it is. btw, anybody else thinks the COM suite looks a lot like ICAS? viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1307 |

That 2nd drawing was one of my old ones.
Note that 2 others SB Artists made previous attempts to draw this design |

Please use the props for the Type23 that I drew. They are more likely to resemble the real deal,instead of the 'shovelring' you presently have (I know: generic 1 gen stuff from the toolbox here!) Otherwise very promising drawing, though not a particularily elegant vessel.
Yes! I will do that, I know what you mean. Also, it's nice to have a constructive comment in an otherwise negative and misguided thread!!!
Jabba
I am aware of this, but my drawing is based upon different material.Note that 2 others SB Artists made previous attempts to draw this design
If this ship is YOUR INTERPRETATION, move to the "Own warships" section ?
Yes this is MY INTERPRETATION. If any moderators feel it is needed, please move this thread ![]() ![]()
it is the correct size, IMO, and even if it is too big: the phalanxes are way too small
Yeah you are right. I based my drawing on someone else's interpretation of the 'Type 26 Frigate' design. I thought it would be nice to draw/show people a slightly different looking vessel with similar specs.![]() oow and looking again: the VLS deck looks wrong, the front phalanx is too low placed and the gun mounts at the side aren't placed on sponsons. I also miss the UCAV catapult and the platform with the hitrole on seems wrong. also, where did you get that hitrole from? it isn't on the renders btw, if you can show me recent refs proving me wrong, I have said nothing of the above ![]()
@ Jabba
My drawing wasn't based on this render.Your drawing need some refinement
Short of having builders plans, all of the warships under Never-built are subject to some degree of interpretation.
Thank you, I totally agree.
it is an mistake that is easily made, from a distance they look much alike, but at high res renders as these we can clearly see which gun it is.
Highly probable....@ Jabba This maybe should have been posted in the 'Personal Designs' section due to the slightly obscure source of reference, but to be honest some drawings that have appeared in the 'Never were' section have been based on material more questionable than this, and more 'artistic license' has been used (to good effect) in plenty of cases. As mentioned above, I just wanted to try drawing something new a little differently. ![]() |

Also, Colombamike, Where did you get the idea that it had only one engine from? In which part of the drawing does it show only one engine? |
