Hi Risen Britannia, It's looking good, but I'm unsure about the turret front - by the time you're getting to triple turrets, there's normally the beginnings of a "step" at the front - this is normally accommodated by either the slope of the turret front or a flat step in the profile ... however, yo...

That looks really good Risen Britania. Looks really nice 8-) Thanks The only 'but' I would have would be to increase the flare on the bow to help with seakeeping at the high speeds you want your ship to attain. Have a look at the bow on the Vanguard as an example of the flare I am talking about. So...

explain to me what "Sharp" is. SpringSharp 3.0, a program for calculating WWI&2 military ship I found 2.1 which is saying that i need a 164,000 hp engine for 35 knots, though if i narrow the ship down to 20m it drops it to 151,000 hp, which would put it inline with Japanese cruisers . PS: 14,000 to...

A very beautiful ship, and good scale. British-like style. The only questionable thing is too modern bulbed nose. And it would be good, if you calculated it in the Sharp. Thank you very much, although you will have to explain to me what "Sharp" is. Very good looking ship. Only niggle would be that ...

Not to mention it appears to be used without creditation, which while not plagiarism is still frowned upon. Well, I recognize the propellers and hull shape from the Hood drawing available on Wikipedia... which is NOT part of Shipbucket and so therefore you are NOT allowed to use it in your drawings...

Not a bad start but not really shipbucket style yet. Suprisingly sane for a Nationstates design (eight 15" guns rather than three dozen 30" guns, a few dozen ICBMs and lasers...), though the secondary battery is a bit unusual (9" and 8" is really a bit much duplication - drop one or the other... al...
