Queen Elizabeth Class Battleship
Main Armament - 8x 15" guns in 4 turrets
Tribal-Class Destroyer (no background info, but just think of a WW2 sub hunting destroyer with emphasis on surface warfare.)
Main Armament - 4x 6" guns
2x 21" Torpedoes
I took some liberties with the weapon loadouts, fyi.
For those who have no idea what this is -

The Queen Elizabeth class are a class of battleships built during WWI and went on to serve gallantly in WWII, sporting 8 15" guns and an array of smaller weaponry. (In my version, I excluded the torpedo tubes and some of the smaller, superfluous guns, because I'm actually making more of these and having fleet battles, so I need to think about balance.)
Also, just for kicks -
Spitfire (or Seafire, if you want to be a stickler.)
Once I build the carriers, they are gonna have to launch SOMETHING... (I even figured out how to make 'em move like actual planes! )
For both of these, many guns are invisible so that the deck/plane doesn't look too crowded.
Also, credit to Panzerfaust for laying the groundwork for my turret sprites unknowingly.

In my humble opinion, you shouldn't really try to replicate the deck. It's not even the coloring that's off. You could get it spot-on, and it would still look wrong. Why? Because ship decks were made with planking. Rows of the same type of wood laid out in the same direction. The BSF sections, however, don't even come close to replicating it. You have a patch of light "wood" here, surrounded by a band of dark, with two patches of light in front with more dark angling in from the sides and running down the middle. It just doesn't actually look like an old-timey ship's deck, and never will unless you make your own sprites to simulate it.
