Not a bad effort Nigevids,but you need to clean up the drawing a bit especially around the aft 5.25" where there is a lot of leftover pixels

The original Nelsons @ 23 knots were 3-4 knots slower than what may have been ideal. A different design as below, would certainly alter their nicknames, no more Nelsol & Rodnol. The Nelson is as rebuilt through to 1940 with 5.25" and more AA. The Rodney is as in WW2 with original 16x6" and 6x4.7AA and smaller. http://i1166.photobucket.com/albums/q61 ... 8x16_5.png http://i1166.photobucket.com/albums/q61 ... 8x16_6.png |

The engine space on those two is going to be mightily cramped, there is only 15m for engine space!, the funnels(hence boilers below) are very far aft |

being that small it would probably have to be diesel engines which would make for much smaller smoke stacks . |

They'd be a lot slower too. |
