Here is the updated USS South Dakota. Not much to say, I updated it along the lines of my previous updates and other American BB drawings.

South Dakota as designed:

South Dakota as she would have appeared upon completion in 1925:

The USS South Dakota has recieved a massive update.

The underwater hull is completely redone with new hull shading, new propeller shafts and propellers. The rudder is modified with more detailing added. All rigging has been recolored to a beige color.

The turrets are redone and the barbettes have been resized. I also made the barbettes taller, now the bottom turrets are 8 pixels above the deck as opposed 4.

All casemates have been redrawn and looks much better now. I've also added new anchors and added some hull plating.

I´ve updated the SoDak drawing and added a drawing of the ship as she would have looked like upon completion in 1925 with double the number of 3" AA guns.
