Lost of words, Fabrice! You are a master in scratch building!
before arriving at this, there were many failed attempts.
Wow, c'est formidable !

Understood now what they are made of, excellent craftsmanship.

I do love the French torpilleurs and this is a superb rendition of one. Have you done a contre-torpilleur?
the "Fougueux" is a contre-torpilleur of the ADROIT class.
Hi Fabrice
The Adroits were torpilleurs d'escadre. Contre-torpilleurs were bigger and had a larger main armament. They also came in classes of 6 not 14 like the Adroits. The Contre-torpilleurs classes were: Jaguar, Bison, Aigle, Vauquelin and Le Fantasque. Marines Editions did a superb series on each class.

sorry you're right, it was me who unlocked... in fact, it's a squadron torpedo boat... I mixed everything up there... ...
Amazing work Fabrice!
You, sir, are a master craftsman!
