Description A Shipbucket drawing of the once-proud ocean liner RMS Britannic as she would have appeared in World War Two as the troopship "HMS Resolute", wearing the scheme she would wear from 1939 until her loss of the eastern African coast in July 1943 by an unknown German U-boat. 

About the drawning:
-This was based on the appearance by Mike Brady of Oceanliner Designs that appeared in his Britannic alternate history video. This includes the positions of the 4-inch MkVII guns, quadruple AA mounts and Carley floats however some details were removed as to not make it an exact copy of the drawing. 
-While I'm aware that AceNos has made a better Olympic-class, I used the one by D. Briedis (it's basically Olympic with some bits from his Britannic) as working with it could cause issues.
-The templete was altered from the original "Template XXL2" as while being large, Resolute showed it was too small by depth and the length shortened because I didn't really need all that space. So, I slighty increased the depth and reduced the length while making sure it still looked like a proper template.
-The two-tone scheme was based on HMT Aquitania's own scheme in 1939-41, which made her look like she was still painted with a white superstructure and a black hull, so I thought it looked nice.
