Allright, since my time is limited, because of many reasons, I am gonna to post them one by one, as I can post a whole line (class) of ships at once.
I have been doing research for like 3 years, to get most of these done (checked out) So now its time to draw them..
The one to begin with. I hope I can add soon a couple more!

Thanks!) Yes the Spica is on my list too, but on a later stage (as I have only a limited resources about her, I am gonna contact her currents owners and hope this turns out nicely)

Excellent! Great detail. Does "Vorpostenboot" mean that this
was originally a boat carrying the mails, or was it posted as
a scout/recon ship?

Thanks! It's a little hard to give a proper translation, but Vorpostenboot means like '' To the Duty'' or ''On Station'' In Both Dutch -and German ''post'' means ''Station'' in Army language. It's basically pre-arranged patrol duties, every ship (or unity) had an own area. They had a patrol duty against Submarines, raiders or aircrafts (depends on the unity) Calling them a ''scout'' would work too, yes) The ''Vorpostenboot'' where in many forms. Most I have seen are ASW -and AAA. Generally refitted from Trawlers or Luggers. I believe most ''MLF'' (as this is a sub-type) where used for AAA or coastal attacks.

An excellent drawing, on par with the usual ALVAMA style.
