Re: HMS Indomitable - a proper armoured carrier
A superb drawing!
High in the water because of the two hangars and with that camouflage scheme, one can understand how German pilots took her for an American carrier during Pedestal.
Very nice work

Re: FD Aircraft 19
I've always had a sweet spot for the DHC-3. Stuck between its better-known siblings, the Beaver and the Twin-Otter, the Otter is not often seen or reffered to. It's really nice to have these great drawings of it! I remember seeing one (on floats) side-by-side with a turbo Beaver on a lake somes ...

Re: Diverging Cold War AU in FD
Thank you! I always liked the Crusader and I wanted to explore the possibility of a similar aircraft more focused on the all-weather interception role. I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out. As for the Swedish carriers. The thread is focused on the Cold War area but since this timeline ...

Re: Diverging Cold War AU in FD
For my first entry, I decided to expand on the FFVS J 36 Näcken, which I first draw earlier this year for nestor_d's unofficial air superiority jet fighter challenge . I corrected some errors in my work and came up with a couple more versions for it. So here it goes: FFVS J 36 Näcken Naval fighter - ...

Diverging Cold War AU in FD
Greetings everyone, and welcome to my personal AU After some thoughts on the exact format I would use to introduce my universe, I decided to focus my first thread on aircrafts, mainly because this is the style I’m most comfortable with at the moment. But I’m not closing the door on an eventual spin i ...
