You're probably not far from the real size.

Here is a comparison with WoWS' paravane :

Thank you JapLance !

Assuming that these devices are from WWII and dimensions are in millimeters...

Here is a comparison of VonDos' paravane with all 4 types :



And a comparison with the type B :



So the lenght is correct, but the diameter is too massive. And the shape can be improved too.

Model of paravane ("paramine tipo C") is finished !

1647 triangles (yours was 540).









Probably not 100 % accurate giving my limited references (pictures & plan), but general aspect and dimensions are correct IMHO.

Really cool
I guess it's more accurate than a lot of other parts of the ship

Thank you so much, can't wait to insert them in the models

Exclamation

I've just found that : https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paramine

Those pictures are excellent ! Well, some parts of my model may be improved. Stay tuned.

Not having checked wikipedia... what a rookie mistake !
