Colombamike -

I understand that you might not feel the drawing is "up to snuff", but please try to post constructive comments (vs. just an image macro....) The assistance you've offered me in the BB-55 thread is useful and constructive... I would expect the same should be offered to David in this thread.

Klag -

No need to even respond when a post like this is made...

Thanks...

Wow...that mansion is absolutely smashing, David! Love the fabulous attention to detail! Thanks for sharing that! I, for one, would love to see more of that work!

Thanks Ari. The house is MY design not a copy, inspired by many many different examples.

Here's another:

Hi David,

Wow (again) - quite impressive that the USN battlewagons you've been putting out aren't even your best work!

On a building-related note, have you seen the "buildingbucket" thread in non-SB drawings? Looks like you'd be quite at home there, too...

Okay, first of all, that drawing has been made a pretty long while ago, doens't match up any current level of details and newly drawn equipment and the drawing has been drawn with just a few sources. It was made just to get some lazy ass talkers around into drawers back those days; I succed getting them to draw; and amazingly they claim themshelves as one of the best over the forum.(Kugh) Besides if you people always have to complain; why even consider using an old work eh? If you know such much, and having such much acces to sources, just start a clean drawing. it should not be such hard.

Not bad actually

Holy Toledo! Talk about a work of art!

Sorry Mike,

But I can find only three photos that can be confirmed as 1933 post rebuild all of the others are ca 1940s with radar and all.This is the best one of the three.



With everyone stressing accuracy I'm hesitant to continue.

Not knowing much about the USS NM, I must admit there looks like two levels of windows on the bridge, the one below the one on your drawing looks like its windows with a upper bulwark overhang

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Here is another 1933 photo. The opennings in question seem, note I stress seem to bem], portholes; but, the photo is small and grainy:
