Forrest Sherman and other 50s designs

Hi,

I have been a semi-active poster on the Naval Weapons Forums. I am an avid Shipbucket fan, but lack the skills to create my own designs. Everything I have done so far has been with paint and can only be called, (with much consideration) kit bashing for my own AU time line. I don't want to violate any design standards or embarrass myself by posting anything I have done so far.

I would like to know has anyone made a Forrest Sherman class design? My AU takes place in the late 50's early 60's and I have noticed a lack of designs from that period for DDs and DEs. I'm not criticizing anyone I am just wondering if that has been done.

I do want to salute all who put time and effort into all of the wonderful designs and drawings for us less than armatures but more than casual fans.

RP2Ryan, USN

There does seem to be a dearth of 50ies designs in general.
We've got the Gyat though.

I have WIPs of Forrest Sherman, Leahy and a few others. All but Albany (well, Chicago) might be considered 'dormant'. Time has been very short for me lately.
