late fun! Unable to sleep so ...

Tjeld / Nasty-class, I am not so happy with it.

The gun on the Storm-Class is a 76mm Bofors cannon TAK 1976 (Norwegian style?) If anyone has drawings of the gun or can make a better one, so ... 8-)

the Hauk-class boats have I added the see hull. otherwise the other boats are almost from scratch.

The radar on the snøgg-class doesn't se right...

Tjeld/Nasty wouldn't be able to go anywhere or turn, as it lacks both propellers and rudders.

The credits seem wrong in light of what you say above... if you did them all from scratch there is no reason why MConrads name is in the credits.

The Tjeld Class seems very crude compared to the rest of the ships. It'll definitely need some more work. The hull especially.
Here's a drawing of the Danish Søløven class. It's about ten years younger and quite a bit larger, but the basic hull shape is the same.

You'll need to mark the waterline with a black line.

Also, the proper name of the class is the Tjeld Class.
The Nasty class is the American PTF which carried a rather different armament.
This website should have all the information you could ever need if you want to draw the Nasty.

The Søløven class was a deriative of the British Brave class of M.T.B's (the British ships had three propellers and were powered by Bristol Proteus gas-turbines), while the Tjeld class had two propellers and were powered by Napier Deltic diesels (in fact they were more compareable with the British Dark class of M.T.B)

I'm well aware of that fact, but the hull shape is still very similar, since both are full-planing.
Black lines indicate a full 90 degrees break, and not a knuckle like you find on planing boats of the era.
90 degree breaks are possible, but extremely hard to make when working with wood, laminated or not and have only really come forward with the introduction of various GRP materials. And anyway, none of the images I've seen of the Tjeld or Nasty class shows that kind of break. They have a very pronounced knuckle, but not to the degree you've shown. At least not to my thinking.

Much better, but I'd use a lighter grey. The one used on the other boats should do fine. Also, use a grey that is darker than both the upper and the lower underwater hull to separate them.
Oh and all the other boats will also need a black line along the waterline.
