@Elf177 - those are still single 4" on the Himmel, they are the original 4" guns mounted on the Lion. If he wants 6", then he needs to fit the 6" guns off the RN Weapons Sheet. 12 would be enough.

That looks much better. You still have 16x6" not 14. I would remove the double storey mount under B mounting and lower B mount 3-4 pixels (so that it sits down closer to the top of A mounting, also lowers the topweight). Then join the line from the masthead to the turret.

This is your best drawing work so far, well done.

I think you should maybe add a flag ? or something to make it definitely your nations would round out a nice ship :)

(I would agree with lowering the B gun)

Sturmer class Battlecruiser
This class was the last class of battlecruisers to be build during the First World War for the Lothringenese Federal Navy. It was armed with ten 15 inch guns and ten 5 inch guns. It has 10 inches of belt armour, 3 inches of deck armour and 7.5 inches of turret armour. This class had a powerplant of four steam turbines and 32 boilers powering four shafts which produced 48,000 hp or 35, 790 kW. Five of these ships were built. The class so little during their short service, LS Stuart and LS Krupinski had the honour of "escorting" the Kaiserliche Marine as it sailed to Scapa Flow to scuttle their ships.

Jutland class armoured cruiser, Lothringen's protectors
The Lothringenese Federal Navy seeing armoured cruisers that were now coming into service in other navies decided to have cruisers of their own. So by 1905, the Jutland class armoured cruisers were born. This class had a main battery of six 8 inch guns and a second battery of four 6 inch guns. It was protected by 8 inches of belt armour and 2.5 inches of deck armour. It has a top speed of 23 knots to 2 shafts powered by 2 steam engines. All ships were scrapped by 1919.
