Italian Destroyers

[reytuerto]

Hi Karle. Thanks for Usodimare`s 1929 drawing!, previusly I had not idea of a so dark color scheme in the Royal Italian Navy. Cheers!

The northern fleet had a dark winter color and a light summer color, though the de facto "color" at the time was light grey and had been since late WW1.

I've noticed that you drew the maestrale and oriani superstructure basically identical, tho in real life they were different in the fact that the maestrale's was rounded when seen from the top. I don't know if they look the same from the side but just in case I wanted to point it out.

P.S. sorry for my english

Edit: Also shuldn't the maestrale's conning tower windows be more like an oval? Btw great drawings!

[Karle94]

As built they were near identical. As for the windows being oval, yes, but if I made them oval at this scale they would look wrong.

Ok my bad, thanks for the explanation!
