Claim your Worklists - Ships up for grabs

I'm not doing this in any official capacity since I'm not a staff member, and I'm picking these completely arbitrarily, but I do agree with Colo's sentiments about emphasizing ships yet drawn as opposed to redoing existing drawings. So here's a list of major vessels across the globe, once again, completely arbitrary so if you have any suggestions add them in your own post (or better yet, just draw it!):

Australia:

Most of the WWI ships
Balikpapan class
Leeuwin class
Paluma class
Tobruk
Choules
Sirius

Bangladesh
Basically the entire navy. If it's not British it needs to be drawn.

China
A lot of the early Cold War ships are missing

Colombia
Almost freakin' anything

Cuba
I'm pretty sure they have more than just one ship.

Ecuador
See above

Egypt
According to the current Shipbucket database a significant part of the Egyptian navy consists of rowed reed boats

Greece

Lots of historical assets

Indonesia
Many small/secondary/auxiliary units

Iran
I know sources are bare but so is the Shipbucket folder

Iraq
Likewise

Israel
Most of the Israeli Navy that actually saw action are absent from the database

Mexico
Much of the equipment they bought second-hand from the U.S., or a lot of the stuff they designed themselves particularly the Durango class

Pakistan
The vast majority of its navy. As it stands in the database now it's a frigate, a sub and a replenishment ship.

Philippines
They have a small navy but it's still significantly more than a single ship class.

Russia
Yes, Russia. Their WWII naval assets are still seriously lacking, and they have countless auxiliaries and second-line ships.

South Korea
most of their current significant surface assets are represented but that still leaves out significant numbers of smaller vessels and historic vessels (and yes the Turtle Ship has been done so you can move on from that)

Spain
Many historic assets, particularly 19th century and prior

Thailand
They have a carrier. It's not in the database. Nor is most of their fleet, historic or present.

Turkey
Many, many powerful vessels are up for grabs, provided you define "powerful" in historically relative terms. In fact Turkey's entire historic fleet is up for grabs.

USA
Virtually anything prior to 1890 is up for grabs. A majority of battleship classes have yet to be represented as well, though many of those have been claimed in worklists. Most auxiliaries, probably the largest Western fleet of them, have not been drawn.

Any nation not listed in the database
If it's not there, it's absolutely up for grabs.

I'm thinking about doing the remaining Japanese CVE's and some of their other second-line WWII.
That's all I can handle, I believe.

I think I can handle the Korean Gumdoksuri class (PKG) and Chamsuri class (PKM) for the Korea folder and the Chinese reverse-engineering version of Osa and Komar class of Missile Boat.

In the Australian section the Leeuwin, Paluma and Balikpapan classes have been drawn. But I understand and agree with the point you are trying to make

I intend to do the Tobruk, but not in response to this topic

Well if you count "ships" and not include auxillaries, the only one's lacking are the Pr.30/pr.30K class destroyers and Vladimir Poluchin class large minesweepers.... rest of the missing stuff is small gunboats and semi-auxillary sloop nature vessels dating from the Tsarist era. The afromentioned destroyers and sweepers are on my worklist, and all Tsarist Baltic fleet is on mine and Bezobrasov's worklist.

What russia actually lacks is indeed the Tsarist era ships, expecially in the Black Sea fleet and the Pacific Squardon.

What we lack IMO most are the USN destroyers from Farragouth to Bagleys and the Bensons (a proper rendition) to Bristol... the Fletchers and onwards are well presented but the early 30´s destroyers miss.

Also, France, france, france, france...
the still most important fleet to miss most of its major warhips is the French fleet.

Also, I can declare the Kriegsmarine's Panzer shciffe's that ive drewn open for renewing, but Ill retain my claim to do so to the Cruisers and destroyers Ive done for them. The K-class ligth cruisers still misses though and I cannot foresaw myself doing them in anytime near

(Partial) Post-War USN Not-Yet-Drawn List:
(Ships listed are generally the lead ship of their class)

DL-1 Norfolk
CLG Conversions (Only one of 4 have been drawn)
CLC-1 Northhampton
CVL-49 / CC-2 Wright
CVL-48 Saipan / AGMR-2 Arlington
LHA-1 Tarawa
CV-41 Midway
LSD-29 Thomaston
T-AKD-1 Point Barrow / AGDS-2 Point Loma
LPD-1 Raleigh
LPD-4 Austin
LSD-36 Anchorage
LSD-49 Harpers Ferry *NOTE: This is a externally almost if not identical to the LSD-41 design.*
LST-1179 Newport

About Italian and Italian-made ships: most of pre-W1 and some pre-WW2 are still missed as well most of the submarines.
Moreover AustroHungarian fleet mainly built in Venice and in Monfalcone...

I'm working on the Newport.

Worklist

Source Materiel is always welcome.

Most of the K.u.K fleet I have actually drawn, thougth for AU purposes and in sligth differences in detail, but it could be easily fixed to fit the proper units. That list includes all pre-dreadnougths and cruisers down to Kaiserin Elisabeth and Monarch class
