There is only one thing I think needs looking at on the 4541, and that is the searchlight platform on the funnel and the walkway structure leading to the forward superstructrure. I think it needs some support as it just seems to be floating in mid-air with nothing to support the weight of the additional platforms above it.

Do you mean where the platform is supported on the funnel or where the platform meets the superstructure?

All the best

Where the searchlight meets the funnel. It seems odd the upper platforms have supporting structures that rest on the lower platform level but it has no support at all. Something seems structurally dodgy and I suspect some detail may be missing from the base drawing.

Ah right. I've got no idea what's going on directly underneath the searchlight, where the black rectangle meets the searchlight platform supports, the walkway looks like it goes behind it, where it would meet the funnel directly. I guess the support would be behind there. That design in that area is quite common throughout the GK series.

Hi guys I've just completed a new drawing, the L 22 c battleship. This guy has been hanging in suspended animation for over a year, it only took two days to complete him :oops:

[ img ]

The L 22 c has been added to the first page and any available information will be added soon.

Hope you enjoy

Tempest.

Thanks BB, drawing the Baden has helped me in a big way in bringing the other drawings to life.

All the best

Tempest.

Looks very good, very well drawn and I can see nothing that catches my eye for nitpicking as everything looks right and the shading and detailing is nicely done.

Hi Tempest!

Greetings
