I see this as a replacement for the old Rí class drawing I did some time back

~Mark.

that a nice looking ship.

Blackbuck, you know, it might be possbile that given the ships i've drawn so far it is now quite clear to most users that I do like old styled warships and that modern stealthy boats are not my favourite things around (to say least). So, every time you see me commenting ships such the one above by stating thet they look awesome, no less, well.. consider yourself capable of achieving the impossible

Keep it up!
