I'm thinking of doing a full re-tread of this AU, considering how far my skills have come in terms of drawing since I began it. Everything bar maybe the frigates will be redone, and organised more logically I should think. Anywho, before I do that, I figured I let loose for judgement a redo of the P...

Wow wee have there been some ripper submissions so far. Well, here's my go at it, first FD scale drawing I've done from scratch as well. I've based it off some ideas I got from an academic paper on the use of thrust-vectoring for STOL operations. WAC/Hawker Siddley Thresher Whilst the Westralian def...

Congrats BB1987, and every one who took part! That was an immensely enjoyable challenge, and there were some absolute killer ideas shown in some designs, very interesting overall, and I can't wait to see what the next challenge brings!

Thought I'd give this one a crack, especially considering as it aligns with something I had planned for my AU anyway. There's probably a few things wrong here and there, but I tried to restrain myself from anything too ambitious a-la Esperance class (if anyone remembers the problems I had with that!...

I certainly see where you're coming from there, and I have a half finished drawing using the Mk13 in place of the gun, but I didn't particularly enjoy it compared to the versions you see here. Maybe the RWN saw the need for shore bombardment following operations in the Malay peninsula? Besides, I wa...

I thoroughly enjoy this AU and how grounded it seems, and these frigates look like great little additions, very well done!

I think that there was a lot more emphasis on ASW in the competition than the RAN gave out, becuase that is besically THE part where the T26 really shone compared to the other designs. Otherwise it would have made more sense to go with the Hobart derived design. From what I gathered the RAN made it...

Something always bugged me with my Broome class frigate, never quite looked right, so I decided to redraw it. Initially this was just meant to be a few minor tweaks and switch out some parts so that it reflects the recycling of parts and weapons between ship classes in the AU (Esperance-Broome class...
