There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

These are fantastic, great work!

Great series.

Thanks all, just added HMAS Marysborough so that completes the "Orignal style" Bathursts with the angled superstructure, the rest of the 60, had the boxy superstructure which was presumably easier and quicker to build and gave a larger bridge without impacting on the forward spaces

Wow been this long, hopefully they'll be coming thick and fast!
