I've been wanting to update the existing thread (which is a terrible mess) primarily as a repository for the various completed drawings that I have. As such, I'm collating them here prior to writing out their individual class histories. Primarily post-PSW (analogue to WW2) designs are the ones that have been completed thus far. I'll be periodically updating this first post with further drawings and the aforementioned histories and blurbs.

Tír Glas, formally the Kingdom of Tír Glas is a sovereign state located off the western coast of Vinya in Septentrion. It has a total land area of 694,260 square kilometres making it the largest single island on the planet. Tír Glas has second largest population and economy in Vinya with over 138 million citizens and a GDP of over $5.8 trillion as of (2018). Tír Glas is a former colony of Anglia and Lechernt, its independence being restored in 1902. Tír Glas leads an economic union in Central Vinya.
Tír Glas is broadly considered to be the Ivernic nation though due to the prolonged period of Anglian dominion Anglo-Glasic would be a more correct description. Anglian cultural and linguistic influences are varied and widespread throughout Tír Glas ranging from the adoption of Anglian as an official language to certain colloquialisms originally unique to Anglian culture.
The name Tír Glas comes from the Old Glasic Tír (land) and Glas (green), it is also known more informally and endearingly as Banbha which refers to one of the tutelary goddesses of Tír Glas.

It takes a certain deft hand to draw thoughtful, sensible, recognizable missile ships in both the 1960s-1980s aesthetic and the modern low-observable style, without looking like you're merely aping a real-life navy's evolution. You are one of the masters of that art.
The designs, the drawings, the evolution, and the execution are all top-notch.
I was going to say there are some lovely ships here, but actually it would be more accurate to say they all look good. Plenty of food for thought here and everything is gorgeously drawn.
