Hi guys
RFA Engadine was the Royal Navy's helicopter support ship, commissioned in 1967 and decommissioned in 1989. I'm mainly drawing her because I want one for an AU, but hey, I might as well get in on this 'real designs' fad that seems to be popular right now :P

Anyway, I've put together a basic hull outline. I just wanted to make sure nobody found it truly offensive, or worse, incorrect before I continued.

Couple of little things I noticed before you go too far, There is a break in tht focsle before the hull side joins the weather deck. And the stern rake looks a bit sharp. ;)

Re: the break. I'm refining the deck level hull shape significantly in adding structure details. It's... 'helping'. The focsle break will be part of it.
I'll drop the stern a little :D
