Very nice (that's a bit of understatement really) to see what is relatively unknown part of Australia's naval history so well done Graham |

Thanks Graham, I find these ships have been largely forgotten, overshadowed by the ships of the 1910's, shame really considering the service they provided |

Great work Rodondo! I look forward to more  By the way, what's the story behind the colour? |

Ah, I went with a grey with a slight blue hue, looking at paintings of HMAS Encounter of a similar period, the red is a estimate of the antifouling paint |

Yeah sorry, the blue hue was what I was referring to. It looks good

Looking great! The offset waterline marking looks interesting. I suppose this served some kind of purpose? |
