For those who're interested, I updated the Wickes and Sumner class camouflage databases at http://www.shipcamouflage.com/ over the last couple of days. Both now include links to the camouflage measures from each ship as well as a copy of the design sheet for the dazzle schemes when used (with a couple exceptions that we're missing). Next phase will be to add some missing data and ships from the Wickes Class page. Hope y'all find it usefull!

Actually, due to "find and replace" it's not all that hard or tedious to do the actual linking...

It just takes time to search NHC and find all the design sheets.....

That is really great. I've been on that site many times but didn't know you broke it down by type and class. That's a great resource.

Thanks for sharing.

I've only done one ship in my life, but have a number stashed as future projects. Just wanted to jump in and say "Thanks" for your efforts. This is a great resource, and will really be of great help when I finally pull the pin and get going on my naval kits.

Cheers,
Mike
