Visby Class

#1 Post by Mabuse1 »

Hi everybody.
Just did a pic of the Swedish Visby Class. I am aware that there aleady is a Visby drawing, but as I like the ship and I found the drawing by MConrads to be a little bit dull I decided to make my own one.

I took the A109-Helo from Little Bird's drawing from the parts sheets forum (thx for doing those!). However I think its not exactely to scale, so I'm thinking about making a new one. Maybe later...

As I guess some people would consider it not to be according to shipbucket-rules, I posted it in this forum.

Hope you like it!

Maybe I do the other proposed versions of the Visby (Export, Visby+ etc.) in the near future.

If you used MConrads drawings, or larger parts of it hulls you should credit him!


BTW. Shading on some area is a bit to dark, For example the hatch.

(besides the helicopter, which seems to be to scale after all, I just checked it. This thing REALLY is so small...)

It's the exhaust from the RBS-15 missiles
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error

Are you shure about that? I'm talking about this very prominent black sqares-thingy below the landing deck...

This picture and video shows that there isnt any exhaust coming from that part...

From the pics I know, the RBS is mounted somewhere below the bridge part, although I wonder where. There is no matching door for it.
Image

Maybe its the exhaust for the not outfitted AGM, but even that won't really fit.

I know that every Visby-Ship is very different in the details though.
And I realized that the ROV comes from the smaller side door. Think I have to change that...

Air intakes for the engines I guess. It looks like it's covered with a fine mesh of some sort, hence why it looks like panels rather than a grating.
The dark triangles you've labelled as Alecto launchers are housings for the navigational lights.
