| Post subject: | Royal Navy Pre-War Sloops |
Following on from drawing the Australian Grimsby's, I've started work on the other classes of pre-war sloops, beginning with HMS Egret: ![[ img ]](https://dl.dropbox.com/u/93700641/L75%20Egret.png) On the 27th August 1943 while in the Bay of Biscay, HMS Egret was the first vessel to be sunk by a guided bomb when she was struck by a Henschel Hs193. I'm planning to add the Bittern and Black Swan class sloops here too, time permitting. |

Great drawing Rowdy, but I believe you have the wrong director on the bridge. |

Thanks everyone @Trojan - I'll make no promises about those classes but if I can find good references for them (or if someone has some handy that they can provide) - and I can find the time - then I'll give them a go. @Novice - I wasn't sure about the director but I thought I read somewhere it was a modified MkII from the Tribals. If not would you be able to let me know which it should be? I always struggle to find good information regarding what is used

Rowdy Looking very good if you use the same directors that Portsmouth Bill used in his Australian Grimsby’s class you will be sport on Also here is a link to some drawings - but again just "gilding the lily http://s719.photobucket.com/albums/ww199/graham003/ Also I have a spare coy of Peter Elliott ALLIED ESCORT SHIPS Of WORLD WAR II of course you would have to "go south of the river to get It" I also have trucks loads of other drawing /photos that I can burn to a CD for the Black Swan Class if you want Graham |
