Canvas covering is usually colored in a different color, you can find it on several ships, including every single American BB drawn by me. Otherwise, keep up the good work.

Hi Karle,

Here she is with my modification to your canvas covering color.

Looks good, but from the photograph you've shared, it appears that there were a two-level bridge, both covered with tarps. One level for the lower (Admiral's) bridge and one for the upper (navigation) bridge.

Your drawing indicates that there was only one, and I don't believe that's correct.

you need to also cut down the number of shades in your round objects, the mast canvas, the conning tower (it got some wierd pixelated mess if you look it closely) and the turret basis. The normal SB styles for presenting them requires only one or two shades ligther/darker from the hull color.
Otherwise I have no complaints.
