Nice progress.
I am sure you know this look is for one ship alone, HMS Warspite.
Valiant and QE were reconstructed differently and Malaya and Barham were not rebuilt. But, there are also many differences between the 2 pairs so no one ship looks the same.
The Warspite, though, was the one unlike the other 4 at all..
The 2 not rebuilt would be easier to make with the bigger stack than the "R" boys but somewhat similar.
From what I see you may already know that and be planning to make those changes as well.
I have drawings of all these ships (sideviews) the original top view and 2 top views 1939 and 1941 I can scan but you likely have those. Just in case.

That would be a really nice help for me .

Ps.: for the look of the class i decided to do the later ones first. The look I want to create for those ships should come as close as possible to represent Warspite , Valiant and Queen Elizabeth after the major overhaul. With the main look of Warspite cause the medium artillary of the later QE and Valiant is not reproduceable atm.
I will maybe add an early Model for Barham and Malaya later that should not be as hard to do as this one . I decided to make the Warspite subtype cause its a bit more different for the look.

This is weird - the pictures aren't showing up on my computer. :-? Where are you hosting them?

Tomorrow I will be going back to my university residence, where I have a different computer. Maybe it will not have the same problem (some of the IE settings are different). Until then I can only imagine your progress :cry:. I imagine it looks very good though. :up:

I'm on mozilla and I see it.

Can you see my sig? Or other sigs?

Yes I can see all signatures, and I can see other pictures which have been posted as well. Except for one picture of the SS Kyle which I posted on my Rose Castle WIP thread - that one is showing up as an "x" as well.

That would be a really nice help for me .

PM me an email add and I will scan those tomorrow from the English translation of Schlachtschiffe und Schlachtkreuzer 1905-1970 by Siegfred Breyer.

Would it not be possible to use the secondary guns from KGV (I know they are different but is there a way to reduce the hieght? (Excuse my ignorance on modeling)
I guess the much larger stack on the 2 not rebuilt is a big hassle as well?

:D Now I can see the pictures. GREAT WORK! :up:

But why hasn't the class been cloned and added separately? It still shows up as Revenge class.

thats because i work in another order , she is tested untill finished in a diff silenthunter installation on my PC than when she is finished i will clone her and import the clone back to another SH III copy . that way i can mess up my data with her untill she doesn t crash the game and i don t have to reinstall the game or something before i get her to run total free without probs in the game.

Sounds like a good idea to me. If my ships cause CTD's or just aren't ready, I usually just delete them. Your method is better though - maybe I'll make a backup and reinstall it as well for testing. :hmm:
