Scale and Notes

Except when noted all ships are 1/2400 scale.
I used a resolution of 200dpi. with 1 pixel equalling 1 foot.
All images are 6" by 6".

I'm putting 2 versions of each drawing in each image. A ready to go version that just needs to be printed, folded and glued for use, and a simple image so that people can base it however they want.

One word of caution to anyone who wants to modify the ships I've posted. All of these are jpeg images, so don't resave them in Paint. Paint will corrupt the images. Use a better program such as GIMP (my personel favorite), Imageshack, or photoshop.

South Dakota Class



I've just finished the South Dakota. Only 2 US battleships to go!! I've already finished the line drawings for the Iowa and North Dakota classes, so they should be up in the next couple of days. Then I've got to decide on the next project. I'm going to stay with US ships, most likely I'll do the cruisers next. Then on to carriers. I have the palette already set for the US ships and cruisers were painted fairly plainly, much the same as the battleships. I'd like to get a little more experience with the shading before I try to tackle some dazzle camouflage patterns for carriers and destroyers.
