I love your C1-B type cargo ship model, keep up the great work Alex and keep them awesome ships coming.

Just curious though, do you have any plans to maybe make a C1-A and C1-M models to complete the C1 set of cargos, and maybe even expand on your C2 type cargo by making C2-S-AJ1, C2-S-AJ3 and C2-S-E1 models as they were the four most numerous C2 variations built along with the C2-S-B1 which you already have?

Building quality С1 and С2 ships would be a good idea.
Everything is possible.

I second that, though I think this class was called more properly "Treasury", not "Secretary".

Whatever is the correct class name, those sturdy ships saw an extensive Atlantic service from the initial stages of the war, being employed in a variety of roles, from coastal guard to convoy protection. They were some of the most effective US ASW vessels too.

I am surprised that no one has modelled them before, though the lack of detailed plans with hull lines might be part of the answer.

Alex.B - попробуй сделать немного советских торговых судов. А то транспортов стран запада овердохрена. А советских меньше, чем пальцев двух рук. У меня штук 800 разных корабликов, а советских там только: госпитальное судно "Днепр", ледокол "Микоян", транспорт "Анадырь", транспорт "Комсомол", танкер "Москва". Вот и всё, что было сделано из советских торговых судов. Думаю, что всем новые суда будут интересней, чем модернизации имеющихся. Я исхожу из того, что у меня нет всех корабликов для Сайлента, потому где-то могут быть и ещё советские суда, но те люди сделали их только для себя.

Салют!

Тут есть нюансы. Нужны чертежи, ну или качественные рисунки . Делать кораблики по фоткам, на глазок, так себе затея. Второе - кораблик должен быть достаточно массовым (создавать "речной пароходик", который был построен в единственном экземпляре, не особо хочется).
Вот такие дела...

Вот такие дела...
Ишь чего захотел - чертежи ему подавай На большинство наших судов чертежей в доступности нет. Есть только фотографии, и то не на все суда. На глазок делать не нужно. По фото видны обводы корпуса и надстройки. Размерения: длина, ширина, осадка также есть по большинству. По большинству есть силовая установка - по ней можно узнать количество валов. Винты на всех 3 лопастные.
Что касается массовости - то её в СССР того времени практически не было. Были серии пароходов отечественной постройки , но основную массу занимали суда купленные за границей. И большинство из них были штучными. Практически все крупные советские суда: "Трансбалт", "Декабрист", "Феликс Дзерджинский" и так далее были куплены за границей и были штучными. Более-менее массовыми были только лесовозы советской постройки. Их было несколько серий. Среди танкеров , кроме ленд-лизовских "Т2" также особо много не строилось серийно.

Так что делай штучные и по фотографиям.

Если будешь делать советские кораблики, то сделай и этот. Это "Союзпушнина". Просто как благодарность советским меховщикам за их работу. Все купленные транспорты типа "Либерти" и танкеры типа "Т-2" были куплены на деньги вырученные от продажи мягкого золота - мехов - в США. С 1941 года по 1945 год США закупали почти весь советский мех. Англичанам доставалось совсем немного. А это была благодарность советским меховщикам за их труд во время войны. Правда судно проходило под названием "Союзпушнина" всего 3 месяца, после чего его переименовали в "Чукотку" для скрытности. Этот пароход также был куплен в США на деньги от продажи мехов. Всего советские меховщики обеспечили 26,5% всей валютной выручки СССР за период войны. И почти все закупленные торговые суда в США покупались на их деньги. Первый рейс в США в 1942 году принёс выручку, которой хватило бы на 1 линейный корабль или авианосец, но выбрали 20 транспортов типа "Либерти".

Ship request: Cameron-class Steamer
Source- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameron-class_steamship

Half of them were sunk from uboats or from german planes, I tried to find one in the Merchant Fleet Mod that was suitable to size and appearance but no luck.

Some 'Fort' type cargo ships would be nice too, like a North Sands-class fort cargo and a Ocean-class fort cargo. - I found both in MFM close to size and appearance and renamed them for now until proper model is made
Source - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_ship
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_ship
https://fortships.tripod.com/

Park type ship (160 bulk cargo ships and 20 tankers built in Canadian ship yards) - we already have park type tanker from original SH3 so no need to do the tanker model just the cargo model needed.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Park_ship

Also last but certainly not least the Dale-class oiler (main oiler class for british in ww2, 18 built with 5 lost in Battle of Atlantic) - again I found a Merchant fleet model close to size and appearance and just named it Dale-class oiler until proper model is made.

http://www.historicalrfa.org/rfa-ship-classes

All those are worth doing for future projects as they were all common ships with many sunk to enemy action in Battle of the Atlantic.

Very similar to the german raider ("Atlantic") modeled by Gerome.

Very similar to a T2 tanker. You could re-use the same model, and make small changes (texture, funnel size, number of masts...)

Do you happen to have a link to said ships?
