Yep, thought it may have been missing that too, hopefully, 0.8m of sheer up forwards should do the trick

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

Interesting idea. Looking forward to see it more developed. :)

Thanks Eswube!

Hopefully this addresses the problem of sheer?

Coming along nicely, but I was thinking of a little more sheer, and maybe some flare to to bows. After all this ship was supposed to stay on station for extended periods, and so sea keeping qualities are of prime importance.

Looking very promising. Seaplane carriers are my favourites!

Good enough? ;) There about 2m of flare forwards of the bridge(yet to be shaded) and over 2m of sheer

The 4" feels a bit small for such a broad vessel, but I'm seeing a gap in 6" guns as I'm trying to avoid a big turret but the 6" deck mounts by this point were over a decade old

This may be a dumb question, but should the boats (between the funnels) have some sort of crane/davit for lowering?
P.S. I like the look of the seaplane tender!

Ideally, yes but for the sake of keeping the deck uncluttered and considering in the timeframe at the outbreak of war, the ships were completed very hurrediedly, left them there as spares and a sort of shield for the aft torpedo crews but in the 1918 modification, there will be at least one other davit most likely on the other side of the steam launch.
