When trying to re-arrange my 1/700 waterline collection in new cabinet I have gathered the topside view silhouettes of the biggest 20th Century battleship/battlecruiser classes. Then the idea arose to use these silhouettes as the desktop pattern/screen wallpaper. Feel free to use it if you like it - the picture proportions are close to 2:1, so you can still leave some dozen icons in horizontal row above them (on a black stripe added for example) without disturbing the warship gallery. The picture covers 30 largest (exceeding 32000 ton displacement in one point of their history) battleship and battlecruiser classes - ranging from the 1913 HMS Queen Mary to the 1946 HMS Vanguard. The horizontal rows show the introduction period (oldest at the top, newest at the bottom) while the position within the row depends on nationality with America on the left, Asia on the right and Europe in the centre. Of course all the silhouettes are shown in the same scale which makes comparison easy. Cheers Michael

When trying to re-arrange my 1/700 waterline collection in new cabinet I have gathered the topside view silhouettes of the biggest aircraft carrier & amphibious assault ship classes. Then the idea arose to use these silhouettes as the desktop pattern/screen wallpaper. Feel free to use it if you like it - the picture proportions are close to 2:1, so you can still leave some dozen icons in horizontal row above them (on a black or blue stripe added for example) without disturbing the warship gallery. The picture covers 30 largest (exceeding 28 000 ton displacement) carriers and assault ship classes - ranging from the 1920s HMS Courageous to the 2017 HMS Queen Elizabeth. The horizontal rows show the introduction period (oldest at the top, newest at the bottom) while the position within the row depends on nationality with America on the left, Asia on the right and Europe in the centre. Of course all the silhouettes are shown in the same scale for making comparison easy. Cheers Michael
