Only two ships of this class were ever built: USS Erie and USS Charleston.

Very odd class for the USN, too overcrowded to be truly useful but this drawing looks great!

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

Well, I guess I'll take this one off my work list then.

I'm so sorry, BrockPaine; I didn't mean to steal your (or anyone else's) project. And I did search the forum for both Erie and Charleston but it didn't show your signature in the search results so I was pretty sure the ship was unclaimed.

*LOL* well, Brock, I wanted to do her as well, but this edition is simply awesome, so no shame in that! WhyMe, you baffle me with your skills!

I shouldn't be worried too much, WhyMe, Brock's a thoroughly decent gentleman! Besides neither one of us can match your result anyway!

Eh, well, it was accidental, and I haven't had the chance to work on it in a month or more anyway. And Bezo's right - you've done it to a much higher standard than I probably would have, so I can't be too upset.

Funny ship but what an awesome drawing, I think it's really an eyecatcher My congrulations

Thanks, mates, your kind words slightly eased my embarrassment

Gorgeous vessel, but I can't help but to think she looks more Kriegsmarine than USN. Certainly an oddity.

If it's close enough to cast a shadow, I think the flying house wins initiative.

Bronies are like the Forsworn. Everyone agrees that they are a problem but nobody wants to expend the energy rooting them out.
