This is a bare boat design with no nationality or class.
my intention is to see what other designers/artists can do with it.
my original idea was an OPV/Corvette from mid 1980's-late 1990's.
If anyone wants to build around this platform don't worry about credits. I'm interested to see what people come up with.

If you'll post it as an attachment so I can see it, then I'd be interested.

Wrong pennant number. this class of ship should be either F (frigate or escort) or P (patrol craft).
The letter C is reserved for cruisers

Here's my attempt. It's a bit of an axe job.

Piece of advice, next time, don't put any railings on it, they're a pain to remove.

Isn't this the Vosper Mk 18 light frigate that I uploaded to the reference drawings folder?

Perhaps someone should draw it as Vosper intended and it can go in the never built folder.

Seems that TurretHead has a point. On the other hand same problems usually end up with the same solution.
The idea is a fresh one none the less.

Don't ever draw dark grey line above or bellow black line unless you are shadowing something. It makes the drawing look really shitty.

My take on that ship has the armament as the French D'Orves A-69 Aviso.
