This is my first attempt at a real ship, always looking for pointers, shading is still something I'm working on. This is also the closest I've come to serving on a real boat, worked three summers on the Erie Canal, mostly mowing and painting, but got a couple of rides on the Urger. It's the flagship of the canal "fleet" of tugs and is now used for public education. Still a WIP. P.S. On the Wikipedia page on the canal is a photo of the lock I worked at, #32 Pittsford NY |

Were there any hot yet snotty teenage girls to ask out? (assuming you're a teenager yourself) |

Just turned 40, this was a while ago, and no, no snotty girls, wasn't a big teenage hangout. |

Its hard to give an opinion without comparing with the real boat; but I do notice a lack of any screw, and the very primary colours seem to detract from necessary detailing, as around hatches, windows etc. That said, a real pleasure to see a new member beginning on something so interesting: ('What's the matter with you Kid...ain't SUPER BATTLESHIPS good enough for you' ) |

Well other than that you need to add a propeller screw and of course as you said, shading, it's a good draw. |

Good view of the Urger out of the water.
That's what I call a perfect source. Now, Joseph, draw!

That's the one I'm using plus what I remember, trying to squeeze time to draw in between work and school.Good view of the Urger out of the water. Any tips on drawing props? |

[quote="Portsmouth Bill"] That said, a real pleasure to see a new member beginning on something so interesting: I'm not totally new, I did some drawings a while ago, just haven't had time for a while. |
