You still haven't done anything about those props!

the front starboard sponson is always weird

(why overal dark color on it; it is not an opening )

i am afraid that you would not have time enought to make a perfect drawing


Philbob; it is a representation of an army version of the lynx

Really like it I have been waiting for an update of this great ship, just two things though, the prop like other people have pointed out, and if I'm not mistaken and I may be, the Phalanx's are the outdated versions

Okay, I made the sponson darker because it's an overhang and thus shaded, but if ya'll really think it's better hull color, I'll change it. If anyone would like to volunteer a prop that they've drawn, it would be welcomed. And I wasn't aware that there's a new Phalanx, I think the existing one looks fine, but I could be wrong. Nothing like an impending deadline to hurry things along!

the new one which is in the US part sheets in the part sheets section looks a lot better IMHO

it is not only the color the problem, it is that when you colored it , you loose some lines, they have completely disapeared,
- Refer to the original drawing or to good photographic references


for "shading" you have to think in 3D, thus the different parts of the sponson sould have different color variations

to do the work you have fixed you need good informations and ........... time.
Never think; i just have to do........
I do not criticize what you do, i am just stating that sometimes, the work needed for doing something is much more time consuming
than what we have think at the beginning
