Yes, and you're welcome!

I haven't been interested "older" ships earlier; I just don't know much about them, but this is a good looking warship!

Very impressive!

Very nice work as usual. I really like the blue-grey colour you use too.

Cheers, so does Voyager989.

I should probably add that as ever these are all depicted circa. 1939/1940 so no need to beat me about their being 40mm Bofors on there etcetera.

And my Easter present to myself and you all.



TGS Amaranth (C30A) around the time of the second invasion of Norway (an actual operation fortitude north) complete with camouflage, radar fit, landed spotter plane and increased AAA outfit. Resulting in 3*3 6"/50 - 4*2 Bofors 40mm - 16*1 + 2*2 23mm Hispano and 2*3 550mm TT sets.

~Happy Easter all.
