No. no. no. I don't think I'm in "war" with Ian.

The bridge looks way too squarish. Maybe some shading will be nice. Apart from that, it looks rather nice :)

Thanks for the pic and for your help.
Here's one of the pic of the ship from navsource.
It shows the bridge like I have draw first (reference line drawing shows the same).

I can see what you mean; my first thought was that the drawing wasn't accurate, so it looks as though there was some variance between ships; though I'd still for the second version with the bridge front flush with the superstructure. :)

Why don't you draw the ship as it appeared in different years? They probably sent it through several refits during its service life. That would explain the variances between drawings and photos of different ships.

Torpedo is the old one, please update it.

OK, I start to draw every ship of this class in any different fitting of their service life.

I have tried to find the new torpedos. Where are they??

Looks okay but needs a heap more detail (ie. fittings, maybe redoing the signalling flags so they are not so squared off).
There is no "I" in TEAM but there is a ME
