Well you're as much of a sperglord as I am, so if it passed your approval then I'm sure it's fine.

Finally a redone on such great ship, do you plan on do the Providence Class as well?

I have finished the Talos-series by posting the four principal variants. I've also cleaned the drawings up some. Page 1 for those interested!

question: why does the black line dissapear into an shaded area on the stern waterline? under the waterline there is an near 90 degrees turn and above an rounded shape or what?

You must be referring to the so-called flutes at the aft floatplane. Yes, you're right, at the very bottom there are a sharp 'knuckle' where the stern joins the underwater hull. Basically, the stern, viewing it from te aft, looks like a gullwing. I hope this is a good enough explanation, or else you might just show exactly what you mean.

Thank you! That was a nice compliment. I'm working on the Terrier-armed ones. Expect it to take a little longer, and Colo, I'm going to take you up on your offer to use your Cleveland's for the non-flagship conversions.

I meant the actual transom. is it round curved above the waterline and hard-edged below? it seems unlikely, but I might be wrong.

Since I'm not as accomplished drawer as you, my friend, I'll try to draw a stern-view of the ship during the weekend, so you can see that you are indeed wrong this time.
