Right now I'm busy drawing USS Supply/USNS Supply, but here and then I work a bit on all my WIP's in badges. I've completed two more to the collection, the badge for the famous HMS Belfast and the badge for HMS Bonaventure. It's fun with the laste one. The Royal Canadian Navy had a Bonaventure too, and the motive in the badges looks at first sight similar. But if you're interested, you can compare. The badge of HMCS Bonaventure is at the CoA parts sheets for RCN.

Two more completed. The badges for the destroyers HMS Campbell and HMS Charity. If anyone wonders why Charity isn't shield shaped, it's because the Admiralty in 1940 changed the rules, so all RN vessels thereafter gets round badges (RFA vessels gets pentagon badge and RN shore facilities diamond shaped etc.)

Right now I'm cleaning up with my CoA WIP's which are more than 50% finished, so I can concentrate my efforts to a delicate task I've promised to do for Odysseus. Beside that I'm hung up with three ships too Never mind; here is the badges for HMS Bristol (which Hood is drawing right now), HMS Bulawayo (which was a vessel with an interesting story and the possibility to draw in both two german editions, one british real life and one british never "build") and HMS Diana. To HMS Diana I will remark, that I have one more badge (round shaped) on my way!

The last two british badges for a while (at least untill next week ). The badge for the Daring Class HMS Diana and the survey ship HMS Dalrymple, who originally should be the first of four frigates in the Loch (or Bay) Class. All of them were being cancelled, but the one launched became Dalrymple.

Although I'm hung up with a rather difficult drawing, I've relaxed with two badges. One of these by request of Bombhead.
It's the badges for HMS Campania and HMS Carlisle. The latter is rather exciting. She had served for over 30 years (although the last five was as a base ship), and had been rebuilt and refitted. She could be possible to draw in several versions

I've just draw two easy ones, though the ships they represented weren't easy The one is for the famous dreadnought battleship HMS Queen Elizabeth (1915-1948) and which probably should had represented the non-build carrier CVA-01. And the second is for HMS Queen, an american escort carrier lend to UK during WWII. I draw that because I'm afraid Bombhead soon miss some carriers to draw, so for once I have done the badge before the vessel

She is classified as a Bogue Class, but I'll reckon it's the american class name. BTW if you already have copied the badges, I will ask you to do it again. I discovered a pixel error in the crown on both, but it's fixed now and the badges are updated
