I've never used blue for searchlights. Some in the early days were yellow but that was garish and cartoonish. I copied someone else's off-white searchlights but can't remember who. As glass they should really be whitish and it makes sure they can't be confused with porthole blue.

Anyhow, these are all great and anyone who wishes to add Great-War era ships is more than welcome. These are interesting ships which deserve inclusion to the archive and they all look very good.
The only adverse comment I would make is the double-pixel destroyer mainmasts and yards should be 3-pixel thick masts (like the Yarrow Special's) and the yards should be single-pixel thick. Double-black lines are not allowed if they can be avoided because they look so awful.

Really, really great work here! Nice to see some more WWI RN Vessels too. In the past I searched for good reference material for WWI era vessels, but could find nothing all that good for anything smaller than a BB/BC. Congrats!

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
