That's excellent! Now You have made my day! :)
Only small nit-pick to the description of DOBI III - it wasn't "fighter jet". ;)
Leftover from making jets for the past 5 months, I'd say.
fixed now

They are excellent (together with completely useful history lesson)! :)
I hope to see complete preview of Lithuanian-built pre-war aircraft. Any chance for it, please? ;)
That is indeed the plan, although to be fair there's not that many of them (the three DOBI planes and nine ANBO types).

This ship is outfitted with mid-war type radar fits and relatively-modern gunnery and fire control systems, but it still ships a large complement of ship's boats (which had been mostly removed by 1942 after disastrous experiences in the Solomons, where several ship's boats had caught fire and provi...

It looks to me like you've lifted the underwater hull from the old Cleveland drawing and recolored it. If that's the case, just take the newest version of the Cleveland hull and you'll get the propellers along with a much better rendition of a cruiser hull. http://www.shipbucket.com/Real%20Designs/...

It could do with some updated propellers... those just look a bit crude (IIRC they are from 2008). where could I find these updated propellers I would also consider raising the superstructure up another deck. Right now it looks a bit too low to really "fit" with other period designs. As for radar f...

It just seems rather sparce. Maybe take a look at the late war Baltimore, Oregon City and Salem drawings. *shrug* eh, I don't know what most of the radars do and are for so I'm kind of weary of putting wrong/useless radars on http://dl.dropbox.com/u/89488912/chz%20lineart%20archives/CA%20Deveour%20...
