Someone said here a while ago, "everything has already been drawn"... I may agree with that but I'll add: Interesting is not only designing a ship (in this case), but putting it in context with the era it was built, how and why and for which purpose. So, I will be as short as possible: My idea is us...

Don't forget to add the artist's name (both DG-Alpha and yourself) to the drawing! Also, there seem to be some coloring issues near the bridge, mainly around the railings. Thank you, Vossie! Changes done! Man, oh man... when this morning I saw what I had uploaded yesterday evening, I felt ashame, s...

That funnel brings to mind a German version of the Lexington. Awesome work!
Thank you, emperor, sir! Yes, the idea came from the Lexington, Yorktown etc. and for a reason: more streamlined...

https://i.imgur.com/0aVZ6Sa.png This is my idea of a then modern aircraft carrier for Germany's navy in the early 40's. This is a "Graf Zeppelin" class because of the overall dimensions, although several changes have been made, the builders having learned from the building experience gained from th...

This is a large and complicated topic that unfortunately can't be easily summarized in a forum post :) No it can't. I've seen a bit on the net and the multiplicity of tasks wich need antennas for getting the basic jobs done (transmitting and receiving signals or voice) and the characteristics of th...

I am also interersted to know about these early electronics. I know that certain antennae were for communications, long, medium and short wave, according to the distance to be covered by the radio transmission. Others were for establish communication between ships of the same fleet, others for comm...

Friends, We have the fantastic part sheets with all kind of stuff. But one thing puzzles me: The enormous amount of antenae on ships, What are their purposes, exactly? And where to place them correctly? What is the difference between a single line comm antenna and a double or even triple one? And, w...

First of all, of which era are you speaking of? One thing is WWII, another one during the cold war and yet another one now... Edit: Sorry, you said it already... "modern RN ships"... Edit 2: If I were to make a try, I'd submit a drawing and below the ship include a text describing the sensors and we...

I would be tempted. I agree a couple of months is needed for a really good carrier drawing with a top view. Having drawn a few carrier top views I can attest to the time consuming process, not so much the ship as all the kit that needs top-views. Fully agree with this opinion. Top view is obviously...

Perhaps this seems silly as a question, but I am kinda new here so I'm asking anyways. For the parts sheets, when taking the parts to use in drawings can you just snip the individual part you need? Or is their a way of copying each part separately to add to a drawing. Thank you! I for my part I dow...
