Hello again! D’Estienne d’Orves-Class corvettes DPs excellent rendition of Commandant Lavallée motivated me to complete an unfinished project (which lay idle at 90% for a year, my bad, no excuse...). The A69-type aviso was designed to replace the E50/52 frigates, representing a shift in French naval...

The frigates resembled the contemporary US Dealey class ...
Hello everyone That class needed a redraw anyway... Caithreim, Thiarian Navy Conlan-class Battleship The history of this class started in the late 1920s. Thiaria's economy, which had experienced a recession during the mid-1920s (the 'roaring twenties' were something that happened to other people), c...
Hello again Commandant-Rivière-Class frigates This class resulted from De Gaulle’s priority shift from a NATO-first to a France-first strategy. Instead of their single-purpose convoy escort predecessors of the E50/52 type, these somewhat larger frigates were designed primarily for intervention in Fr...
That's what I've got so far in terms of modern french parts. It's very incomplete and subject to revision at any time. As soon as it's complete, I'll also add text without anti-aliasing, promise.
