Here, Jabba, as I promised are the scans for the Duncan-class' full hull. I apologize for the rather crappy scans, which is due to having only a moderately-sized AIO. But I hope you can make some sense out it anyway. Also they may serve as a final guiding post to check the accuracy of details when comparing to photos:

Also, I apologize in advance for the huge size of the scans. I just didn't want to resize and thereby distort them, rendering them useless.

This is wonderful. I always liked the RN pre-dreadnoughts.
It seems that every Victorian (and Edwardian) navy had
their own color scheme. It sure made ship recognition
easy before everyone went to gray paint.

Could you elaborate please Ashley? My source is a scanned drawing of R.A. Burts' (mentioned earlier by Bezobrazov).

Many thanks buddy, I will do this justice!!! Also, I think I'll have a crack at the Med fleet you wrote about earlier, I may need some help with references though. I'll gladly work with you to get these ships looking spot-on...
