Don't use the second to last drawing Colombamike posted. It's from USNavyArt.com and they have a rather hit and miss approach to accuracy.
Oh and hi colombamike. Long time no see.

Maybe its just me, but the aft mast seems to bend in the wrong place?

Looking better. For the hull lines, Hood did an AU version at one point (that can be found here) so that might be a good guide.
Thanks for that Tim, I'll make good use of it.

That said, please fix the outdated parts (including TACAN, Satcoms and SLQ-32s).
Sorry, I did not see the new SLQ-32 antenna in the USN part thread, I'll replace it now. As for the TACAN/satcoms, where would I find the newer versions? Also, I have drawn some of the domes myself as they seem to be unique to the class, as far as I can tell.

Damn. That was my main source for my drawing. I'll have to re-evaluate the accuracy of my drawing then.

Well, I work with Ace to help keep the Flight 3 Burke designs up to date parts wise (Link).

Thanks Tim, am I able to take the parts off the Burke? And will I need to credit your or Ace?

Yes you can take parts off, no parts do not need to be credited.

Updated drawing. More details, updated parts, and I've re done some of the lines and the bow.

Apart from the shading, what else do you think it needs?

She is looking good even if I disagree with your choice of mast's. There may be a good reason to use the composite mast than the original drawn. Beside that you shall do something with the flag. It isn't good enough :? Look around other drawn USN vessels and kit bash one from there ;)

Please remove the words "RAM", and swap out the TACAN (the thing at the top of the forward mast) for the one at the top of This mast. She's looking very good.

Wow, already the upgrade between this and the AU version is evident.
