Good start. A bit of advise though. Enlarge the Carley floats a bit so you can get room for a black outline on the inside and still have two pixel wide floats. The end result looks much nicer.

Right. What you are attempting is the S class destroyer, two of which were sold to Norway postwar. And I believe that Novice is already doing these, as part of his 'emergency war destroyers, and will soon do the S and T classes. Your difficulty is that you are designing a lot of your own stuff, whereas what you need are already existing stuff on the RN parts sheets plus existing drawings already done by Novice. Your guns are just not correct, and unless you get a high res drawing I can't see how this will stand up against what Novice will do anyway. I don't want to discourage you, but you'd best be aware that the S class will be done anyway.

(Its a bit like my Norwegian Hunt; I simply modified my RN Hunt and there it was :) )

Yeah, you'll probably be better of modifying Novice's work once he's finished. You could ask for a version without railings and/or layers depending on what sofware he uses, since that'll make it far easier to work with.

Seeing this, all I can say is this:
Most of the equipment is, as mentioned above, is on the RN parts sheet by Hood.
The shape of the hulll aft is wrong, and the director above, is American in origin and should not be placed on the ship.
The hull is in fact the same as the one on HMS Cavalier, or HMCS Sioux (both are in the archive Real Life section)
As for the software, I use only MS-Paint with windows XP.
