Looks excellent.

Minor point, doors and large hatches are generally shown with black outline.
The old Lynx looks a bit crappy now, there is a newer one but might need some mods to make it into a HMA.8.

Certainly looking better yet surely 133m LOA equates to 873px? Somewhere you've got 14-15 errant pixels worth of length. As for the Lynx the Dutch one is AFAIK the newest one we have.

Blackbuck, you're completely right, minor scaling issue lengthwise - I've sorted it now, the ship is the right length.
Hood, thanks - I've sorted out doors/hatches, but having had a look around I can't find a newer Lynx anywhere, and those posts I do find I can't see the image, so a bit stuck on that front at the moment! :roll:

Here's the Westminster update:

The Lynx is an 'orrible little bugger to do being so small. A quick(ish) pass at the HMA.8 resulted in this

It it worth adding it to the RN parts sheet?

Looking good.

I drew a HAS.2 some time back but it looks quite chunkier than Blackbuck's HAS.8, not sure if that's a fault of my drawing.
I did do a Mk.95 some time back, if I can find it I might be able to bash up a HAS.8, though Blackbuck's does look pretty good and may well be more accurate than mine.

These are really cool. I know I've already contributed an "awesome work" post in here, but awesome work. ;) I've always liked the lines of the Type 23 frigates and I think you've really improved on the original. My only suggestion would be to lighten the railing and rigging color to the standard one (defined in the style rules on the main page) but other than that these look great.

Very nice drawings but now you missed the stern flap at the Westminster.
