What's with that umbrella thing between the torpedo tubes?
It's a crane, I think, for the torpedoes.

Great drawing Krakatoa, I'm not sure though, it seems 'too modern' for the time frame. I have no idea why they first used beam turrets and later superfiring, I would have to look into that. The Germans were worried at the time the the superfiring turrets would somehow damage the other turret below,...

Thanks! A small, quick addition. Aerotec A-122 Uirapuru was a light training aircraft developed for Brazilian Air Force (where it was designated T-23) in the 1960s. 155 were built, mostly for the FAB, but some were sold on civilian market and small number was exported to other Latin American air fo...

Didn't know there was a Lazar 3 already; is it a modification of the Lazar 2?

Nice work, but the Bahia you drew is wrong, according to the "only blueprint". You drew the ship with three funnels and the blueprint shows her with two. As far as I know she was built with three funnels, but when modernized with oil fired boilers she had only two funnels. Actually, it's the invers...

A missile ship would indicate something different than this.... But at the same time it is not 100% wrong either to call it a missile ship, due to the small missile silo... But then again Ticonderoga class cruiser is an large missile boat:-\ Small missile ship is a ship category in the Russian desi...

@gral: Sounds tempting, though I might have to redraw most of my WW1 destroyers if all these drawings are only half as good. :o :cry: You own a copy??
I do. Will try to scan some of the drawings tomorrow, or at least take pictures of them to give you an idea of how good they are.

For the next two, I found very good reference drawings, also on a russian source (the forum of tsushima.su, all in Russian, finding these pix was pure coincidence), scanned from some German book, don't know which one. Zerstörer 1945 certainly is from Z-Vor! Bd.2, by Harald Fock, I think Geleitboot ...

Hello again According to http://www.tynebuiltships.co.uk/A-Ships/almirantebarroso1897.html she was - at least part of the time - painted white-buff (with most important Brazilian ships built in Britain, it's probably not too wild a guess that they bought their paint there as well, so RN colours see...
