@ PomboCZ,
Have you planned to draw these 1914-1918 Austro-Hungarian never cruisers projects ?

The 1914 Morin's project

The 1913-1914 Fiala serie

The fabulous "project VII" of 1917 :o

& even the final Austro-Hungarian destoyers & torpedo-boats designs :?:
- the 1918 2400 tons flotilla-leader armed with 4 x 150mm & 4 x 90mm DP mounts
- the 1918 1000 tons destroyers armed with 2 x 120mm & 2 x 90mm DP mounts

@ Colombamike
I draw preferably real built ships. Then I can try these cruisers. Thanks for a good resources for this work )

The Schichau class 78 t coast defence torpedo boats
The A-H Navy has ordered two torpedo boats in Schichau yard in Elbing SPERBER and HABICHT. The successful type was repeated by Arsenal of Pola, where more eight units were built BUSSARD, CONDOR, GEIER, UHU, WÜRGER, KRANICH, REIHER, IBIS. They had one more torpedo tube on the quarterdeck.

The A-H Navy after the successful SPERBER has ordered more five torpedo boats in Schichau yard in Elbing ELSTER; RABE; KUKU; STAR and KRAHE. These were exteriorly similar 14 to SPERBER, but had greater main engine power and speed. The ST-Trieste built more six units from this type and the Arsenal-Pola also built one. These were FLAMINGO; SECRETÄR; WEIHE; MARABU; GAUKLER; HARPIE and KIBITZ.

Then it was built one more small series of similar ships. These ships were scrapped before the first world war.

Plus corrected the color of the hull below the waterline at the torpedo boat Adler

Very nice work.

One small nitpick, the boom on the second 78T ship would be better as a single pixel black line. Other than that these are very fine drawings.

Indeed very nice additions. I really like those small Torpedo boats. There were numerous different classes in all the major sea powers, but not much are shown here. The K.U.K. Navy is an exception in that regards, thanks to PromboCZ. :)

Just checked. Maybe I am wrong since I can't see the first drawing in this thread, but it seems that nobody made the Python Class yet?

Once again, great work on the torpedo boats.

Viper and Natter
These torpedo boats were the result of competitive tests between two torpedo boats built in 1895-96. Natter was built by the firm of F. Schichau at Elbing, while Viper was built by Yarrow on the Thames at Millbank. Admiralty (Marinesektion) officials were better satisfied with the performance of Viper, and four slightly larger examples (Boa, Python, Kigyo and Cobra) were ordered from Yarrow.
