Hamilton class FFg

Post any drawings you have made that do not pertain to an Alternate Universe scenario and are not a never-built design.

apart from what heuhen says, I know that that propeller would not be fitted because it cannot do it's job as propeller of such a ship. it is inaccurate in representing a ships propeller in general.

what ever you say, the propeller IS wrong. It can almost be used as an Submarine propellers... Almost. On a ship, never. Now go to the part sheet section of the forum, in there you should find a sheet that have a tons of propellers, use one of them. And never that propeller.

In fact it should be illegal to use that propeller in shipbucket. We keep telling people to NOT use it... And they are still using it.

And it doesn't matter if a ship is AU or real.. We all know that it will never have been used.

Like I said Its a cut and Paste so the prop is the prop from the donor tribal class

yes, I know. it is wrong on that drawing as well. as you can see, Portsmouth Bills iterations of the ship don't have that propeller.

Just to clarify. The prop was never based on anything in particular, it's just a generic prop that is now frowned upon by everyone because of how bad it is. It's on old drawings because people haven't updated said drawings so when doing a kitbash of old drawings it makes sense to try and bring parts up to date rather than just recycling the old.

I quite liked the looks of this, but then in my view anything with Type 12 and Type 81 bits looks good to me!

I hope we'll see more of this idea, I hope rifleman hasn't taken the criticisms too harshly and canned this.

These look good, its nice to see how the Type 12 would have looked with a 'normal' forecastle.
The stepped deck aft is not an RN feature but I think it does make sense when you consider the Limbos and 4.5in guns you have aft, it increases internal space and it does provide a different look.
