USS Rudderow ![[ img ]](http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j444/WhyMe-PB/ShipBucket/DE-224Rudderow.png) Of all 8 US Navy destroyer escort classes only two are currently on the main site: Cannon and Evarts. Also I know there were a few attempts on other DE classes on the old forum but it looks like they didn't make it. In addition I will definitely draw the Crosley class fast transport (converted Rudderow class). Also if there's no objections I'm willing to attempt drawing Buckley, Edsall and John C. Butler classes. |

Very fine work, but the foreward 5"/38 gun mounting is wrong. These ships had a unique mounting with a sloped roof aft, so that the Hedgehog rockets will clear the the mounting. |

Thanks guys. You're right about the guns, Novice; I will fix that. Update: the 5" guns have been fixed. |

Huehen, Thank you for the research! WhyMe, If you wish to do the Butler class, I have no problems with that...I was considering getting some real design practice with a few superyachts before transitioning (back) into real warship designs. |

I think you started it first anyway, so by all means feel free to take it over. |

Crosley class high-speed transport (converted Rudderow) ![[ img ]](http://i1086.photobucket.com/albums/j444/WhyMe-PB/ShipBucket/APDCrosley.png) Conversions and/or various camo versions are likely to follow
