Rodondo - You are my hero! What beautiful drawings of ships from my favourite navy.

Hmmmm.... HMAS Melbourne in dazzle camo in 1913, and with a Sopwith Pub(?) on her foc'sle? I don't think so, my dear friend 'Bruce'!

Wonderful drawing, indeed.

As bezobrazov already pointed out, I assume the ship is depicted as of 1918?

Was hoping the dazzle would distract you lot from that error which I realised to my horror last night :p I'll fix it when I get home tonight then

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

Harrr, harr, matey...we've got eyes, ain't we???

That's fixed, HMAS Melbourne was actually a time travel ship, afterwards it made the hop into the future to grab a nuclear reactor and SAM's and won the battle of Jutland with it's new Exocets, attack helis and Lasers



Big shout out to Nigel who found a great image of Melbourne in this scheme which I didn't know existed.

No problem Rodondo,

Always happy to help.

Melbourne looks great in that scheme. Only question I have is if Melbourne would have had the aircraft in 1915?

Yes, true, this is probably 1917 on reflection
