I see some important mistakes with that ship. I'll try to find some time to fix them.


Yeah, how the heck could you forget to put me on the bridge?

Rengokuy, I'll see what I can come up with.  BTW, how should a Yank pronounce your name?

I would be most grateful if you could do this one:



It's the USS Tenton CL-11(circa 1943) one of the many ships my granfather served on.

Cant, it's not real Japanese. Just made to look it. I made it to trick wannabe Japan fans into proving they are frauds.
They try to pronounce it and fail becasue they don't realize it's not a real way to spell a word.

I don't normally do requests, but since your grandfather served on it and since the ship looks quite nice, I tried it.



and bonus a sig

Was the USN really using Teal anti-fowling paint at this time?

That Richelieu sure is snazzy!  No Bismarck, Tirpitz, or Scharnhorst though?  Maybe someday I guess.  You have some mad skills, sir, mad skills indeed.  I think I see a month's worth of desktop backgrounds.

Anti-Fouling paint was applied to the hull below the waterline to keep barnacles and other marine life from 'fouling' the hull.  It's usually red.

Teal is a shade of blue.  You have a teal colored streak about where the anti-fouling paint would be.

Aha!  The teal line isn't the anti fouling paint.  The color below that is the anti fouling.
