Thiel may I ask how they need work? I've spotted a couple of errors on them but I thought I'd ask your feedback before I go about changing them.

The birds are looks like they've been resized rather than drawn at their current size.

That was bloody quick and realy captures the look and feel of the ship to a "T"

BZ and VG*
That was quick, I believe you could do a nice job on Aussie N class DD, or Aussie River class Frigates and their "57 varieties " General propose types as build during and modified during the war, their ASW,AA and Survey variants. I do have some drawings Very good one of the AA versions and some basic ones of their GP WWII look
These ships changed their appearance almost weekly !!!

Thiel: I drew both at their current size - I did try to match the pixels as close as possible to the reference so that has resulted in the pixelated look - but no resizing was done.

Graham: I couldn't have done it anywhere near as quickly or as detailed without your excellent reference drawing! I would be happy to give the N class a go but I think Portsmouth Bill has dibs on the River class :)

HMAS Parramatta:

Sunk by U599 in 1941 while escorting a convoy in the Mediterranean. I'm not sure on the camo - I think it is relatively accurate but I was going off a painting and two black and white photos and none of them could agree with each other conclusively :?

Ok so not quite HMAS Swan...I'm still trying to decide how I should depict her.

Lovely drawing Rowdy :D I'm now inspired to get the first RAN River class out - I'm about 60% finished.

Nice camo.
Looks like we're in need for a slightly smaller Australian CoA template. Kim, I believe your reduced round template for RN is the perfect starting point.

If your going to HMAS Swan the best version I suspect is this one. This is what I would like to see, Swan in 1945 with all her wartime modifications just before she was converted to a Minesweeping support vessel but your doing the drawning so what ever you come up with will be OK by me.
