My intention is to eventually draw to scale (1 pixel = 1 ft) every modern (sorry Fuji) ship in the Japanese navy. So far I've gotten thru the auxiliaries (way too many different types), the destroyers, MTBs, submarines, and half the cruisers. Torpedo boats and the rest of the cruisers are next, the boring battleships will be last.

Updated. I really have too many auxiliary types, and now a lot of destroyers as well.

I feel like I should be collecting a bit of royalties off a couple of those auxiliaries.

But I appreciate the graphic.

Desertfox

You probably should, for the 20t MTBs at least. There are definitely other borrowed elements from WW and N3.0, but most have been "laundered".

You may be happy to learn I'll be sketching 40 t MTB soon as well.

Same ships but organized by family instead of designation

Good stuff, Foxy.

I like the look of Hiroshi Maru but I need to look them up.

Sorry Fox, I should have said 'Nice work' quite awhile ago.
I saw them and appreciated them, but didn't say so :)
Did they beat the drum slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march, as they lowered you down,
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

Urban was kind enough to do a couple of auxiliaries and they look great!

Two more great looking ships by Urban!
