Title: Warship Plans...
Post by: Lash151 on January 20, 2013, 01:19:37 pm

I am studying plans and stuff at the moment just thinking about ships I would like to build. I have to admit deciphering plans of warships is not at all easy!! I have found a fantastic resource which is a 3d illustration, a Mr Dobson has done, of HMS King George V... Assuming it is correct, his website is a huge asset if you were building this ship... Even with this it is very difficult to see the structure within the plan! (I just felt like sharing my thoughts really!!)  Here are some example pictures...
