I've finally got around to completing HMS Renown, the refitted sister ship.
-SNIP-

HMS Renown as she appeared in 1944-1945.
I have no words to express how awesome this looks, so I'll just post a raccoon with a machine gun.

Excellent work, Hood.
The "concave bend in the stern" was an hole used for the stream anchor. Sometimes the anchor was carried, sometimes it wasn't.
:oops: Pardon me... openeing in stern... got that confused with HMS Inflexible…

Some pictures of HMS Repulse shows the stern anchore and its arranbement clearly.

Many thanks for all the kind words and comments (and pictures of racoons with machine guns!).

At some point I'll probably attempt an original 1920s version, but it might take another year to get round to it! ;)

Adjoining bit late to the compliments but indeed this is fine drawing of elegant ship. At same time simple and modest drawing, and yet so breathtakingly beutifull and "regal" in all its details, finish and stylistic methods.
