That is one cute ship! I'd actually like to see some proper detailing done for the otherwise nice top view, but overall, beautiful drawing! What are the stats? |

It looks great. One nit-pick though - artillery seems to partially lack full black outlines - which, I believe - is part of SB standards that can't be avoided. |

Certainly attractive. I'd try for a taller mainmast for better radio range. At least some trivial AA armament was typical by this time period; I'd try for, say, a quartet of 3" high angle guns. Perhaps replace the beam heavy guns (which seem out of place postwar) with a few more of your secondary guns and aforementioned AA armament. |

Very nice light cruiser but eswube is right, I know the effect you're going for but it makes it look like you messed up with the cut tool without even realizing it. |

As I thought, similar to Hawkins...

A beautiful design. The power of a Hawkins but not so long and unproportioned as that ship. Great work. |

A followup with twin main armament would be nice...what sort of armor protection would she have? |
