Welcome on shipbucket lad, you start in good forum and that's ... well, good. :D

Read our Introduction and Guidelines and Forum rules. Also we need to work on your ships in case of proper template, crediting and stuff. If you have any question don't hesitate to ask here or PM.

And I must say I like that Italian style destroyer, second from bottom. :D

If you've borrowed parts, you have to credit properly in the picture.
Overall most seem to be fairly solid designs. They have, however, an odd mix of weapons from different countries.
For example the light cruiser, has three tripple six-in guns of an american system, and Japanese 5,5-in guns for secondaries. It's always good to keep the armament and systems to one country, especially during the WW-era. Not to mention it's quite a waste using 5,5-in(140mm) secondaries on a ship who's main armament consists of six-in(152mm) guns.

On the credit matter, the rules are usually along the lines of: hull and superstructure(conning tower, mast, funnels and so on) needs crediting, while armament, boats, and different systems and smaller details(like life rings and fire fighting equipment) does not.

The third ship from the bottom looks quite interesting. The shaft look a bit odd, but I like the concept of a "destroyer killer".

That is the drawing that has least of my input. It is Enrr Navigatori with one torpedo launcher removed and a forth gun added.

Well those ships are just me getting back to drawing ships.

The first thing you'll have to do is to put the credits back in. We're kinda touchy on that subject.

I put the credits back in.

Those are still work in progress.
I will have to draw weapons, for them. Japanese 140mm SP mount is"playing the role" of 130mm DP mount.

Hi and welcome to Shipbucket. :)
These are nice start, though of course more non-kitbashy "own designs" (not mentioning real ships) would be even nicer. ;)
However, besides adding names and credits, those ships should be also put in proper templates which can be found here:
