GeneralMatt's Creation Thread

I still think GM was banned! Hence the need for Monkeys and Pigeons.

With the way Matt's units are shaping up I may have to consider upgrading my dsl to carrier pigeon express. Then again no amount of carrier pigeons will make up for my lack of artistic talent. Nonetheless its another fine effort from Matt and once you get it in your mod wolf I'm gonna have to give the austrians a go on an archipeligo map.

I'll probably release a new version soon... I've actually been doing more "behind the scenes" stuff on more industrial age ships... a lot of tweaks to the Pre-Dreadnought and Dreadnought era have been done... they'll all be in the next release... the Austrian Pre-Dreadnought is also nearing completion.

Austrian Pre-Dreadnought Erzherzog Karl nearing completion...

Did the Titanic & her sister ship ever get posted?

I know it's been awhile... but I'll be damned if we're not pushing forward... Matt's latest work-in-progress... anyone want to take a guess what it is? (without cheating)

I've gotta say this one has me fairly flummoxed. The distribution of the turrets is very weird, which should give it right away. If there are as I suspect two missing barbettes, one in the A position and one in the q then I say its a fuso, although the funnel is wrong. If not, then it could be one of those freakish french super-dreadnoughs that the aircraft carrier Bearn was based off.

There's a missing barbette in the "A" position (I mentioned this to Matt... I'm sure he won't miss the turret, but I mentioned he might want to add the barbette).

 

[Wolfshanze]

Is this better?

I guess I was on the right track with the second part of my response since she's obviously French and obviously a Bretagne class, amazing what a couple of turrets can do for recognition. Btw its always seemed a stupid decision from the design perspective to raise the Q turret one deck adding all that extra weight up high that could have given her better belt or more importantly, given the fate of some of the ships in this class, deck armour. Tell matt she's looking like another fine addition to the CF fleet!
