but about the skinning:

(copy paste in browser) You definatelly see a real destroyer is lots more grey (so if you want to edit the skin, make it grey

)
Could you make me the prince of wales if you still have time? (It's a 'modified' cruiser)

(from left to right: destroyer, prince of wales (I think, but it can also be another one, tough this type is pretty unique), cruiser)
