peppe,.. again many thanks for all the drawings sent,.. I was starting to think I might never find drawings for Royal Oak unless they came from National Maritime Museum UK. I have a few sets of drawings for other ships, a couple have been redrawn from poor quality internet copy. Most are Russian or French vessels. I'll put up a list at some point free to any who want them.
Linux,.. My curiosity is peaked a bit. I'm assuming you have an interest in the Royal Oak. Please forgive me if I come off as prying too much, but you said you'd not studied the plans closely enough ( again assuming ) to determine accuracy.
To me it sounds like you are familiar with the subject.
I intend to start a build of Royal Oak shortly. Any input on things to watch for or pay attention to regarding detail and accuracy would be greatly appreciated.
I have viewed several photos of "ships of class" and noticed differences in super structure, fire control, mast, etc. thats obvious at first glance. I would think a myriad of smaller details that require a close look or knowledge of, also appear.
