Very nice looking. You forgot to erase the orange line of the template in front of the ship.

What is that green/white/yellow thing at the back of the ship?
It floats in the air at 10 meter zone.

Nice to see you back.
Still waiting eagerly on real life swedish ships and neverwhere's as well.

As for the ship (passing the juvenile comments of little leftovers in the template alltogether), Ive always liked it even back at the old forum. The strong looking hull with normal missile boat armament + extensive electronics is IMO rigth way to approach this size corvettes, rather than trying to step downwards from Frigate type of layout/ordanance.

oops....I'll fix that

- The small green things are bottom laying mines
- Thanks, you share my opinion of how a FAC/ Patrolboat should look. I think most of the real RSwN ships lack about 20m.

Damn I've not seen this design lately, It looks great, exactly how a ship of that time sould look like. I'm looking foward to see some more. You're a great point, to look at when design your own! I'll draw a Dutch ship to match this ship soon!

This is the Royal Swedish navy's first true armoured cruiser. Built after blueprints purchased in france losley based on thiere "la Jeune ecolé" strategy. To commemorate their heritage aswell as the swedish royal family´s french heritage they where named after swedish noblemen famaous for the work with swedish-french relations in the 18th century.
