Great job Garlicdesign! Those green underwater hulls just make the drawings pop!

Agreed, the hulls finish all these drawings off excellently.

Dear author,

Please pay attention to Ernest Renan

She had practically the same stacks deployment as the last AC series - Quinet.

Please note the searchlights deployment.

Hello again

I changed some aspects (especially deleted the rangefinders, they were relics from my AU which I forgot to remove), new versions as following:

Dear Garlicdesign,
Ernest Renan - I suppose you'd better to do it from the scratch. She was almost identical by the internal hull division to E.Quinet. It influences the stacks deployment.

Please count frames they were at 1,2 from each other.

No serchlites on bridges on Quinet!
Searchlights are at the forecastle deck 6 of them close to the side turrets.

No gun aft at Hugo and at the same level near the bow turret. That were topedo tube mountings. As far as Hugo is concerned I tried to find out which ship you have drawn - all 3 had the drastical differences in everything even in turrets. Hugo had longer main guns...

Leon Gambetta

Victor Hugo

Jules Ferry
This is the 2 funnel view.

I have not found the exact ship.
Please figure it up - ALL serial French capital ships differ from each other inside the class...

Dima! For those of us interested in sharing your information, your last post is a huge let down, since it prompts a username with a password. can you please just post your pictures here, instead of using a Russian mail-account?
