Shipbucket

An AU version of this ship appeared in this thread (the pictures are now gone), however the real version has not been done yet. So I did this drawing, based on the original drawings by Squizzy with some parts from the AU drawing.

At first glance, this looks good based on the existing Hamilton-class. Haven't seen your AU version but in any case the end result makes sense.
This is one class of ship that could afford some of the upgrades you describe in the current climate!

@judah -- hello kababayan! I guess you've been following the progress of our (soon to be) 3 hamilton class ships... one small item: top of the foremast, all our whecs have lost their two DF/direction finding antennas (both the crossed dipole adcock and the crossed loop antennas)... sad but true, ah well...

Fixed.

Gorgeous work! I believe the Philippine Navy uses the AgustaWestland AW109 as its shipboard helicopter from these vessels, perhaps it could be added to complete your drawing?

Very nice, handsome little ship that is.
I disagree with the way you've shaded but not knowing what the hull shapes are, I cannot really say what would be a better way to shade this.
