I like them.
I'm sure CanisD would also like them if he could still see them.

May I recommend using the cross sections to draw the hull shading? the current shading has very little relation to reality, using vertical cross sections as a base instead of any indication of the ships shape.

Might I also suggest phrasing the credits a bit different? While Titanic had a brief life, Olympic went through several iterations in her 24 years of service. Here's possible credits:

Great Britain, Olympic-class Ocean Liner
R.M.S. Olympic (1911)
(D. Briedis, Ollie, & Acenos)

Great Britain, Olympic-class Ocean Liner
R.M.S. Titanic (1912)
(D. Briedis, Ollie, & Acenos)

just to let people know, I'm not going to do one for britannic. It's a lot more complex and detailed due to having more radical changes to her design after the Titanic Disaster. I was able to do updated drawings of Titanic and Olympic since the differences werent that radical as well as being more well documented.

It could have been easier had I started that project back when the CAD plans site didn't discontinue ordering and go defunct but alas, I didn't know of that site's existence until recently.

The aft funnel is still too tall, it was slightly shorter than the others.

This is not a problem that is limited to the fourth funnel. A slightly less known facts about the Olympic class ocean liners, is that each funnel was actually slightly different from each other in terms of overall height. I don't know the exact technical reason why this was the case, but I believe it is something to do with the ships sheer, also I have pointed out many times on the discord, that each funnel should not be the same height as each other, yet Codum has either ignore what I said or simply not taking it into account when drawing his representation of the Olympic class ocean liners
