American WWI Battletubs

Do you mind doing the Keystone State Battlewagon too, as of 1940/41?

How ironic, I am already doing her.

While I already have many refs to draw from, more would be nice.

Ok. Check your PM

they are not that much, but I hope they will be useful.

The "Nevada" looks beautiful!

Great work!

Great work Karle, I think this may be my favorite drawing of yours.

Here is the teaser for the Keystone battleship:

I had an feeling so I cheeked and this is what I found out:

(note all info from Wiki)
Hull length:
600 feet (182,9 meters) at Waterline that give us 1200px (yours are 1198px (182,6 meters (599 feet)). "It's so little that it doesn't have so much to say"
608 ft (185.3 m) overall aka full length from stern to the most forward bit of the hull (the bulb), (1216px). (yours 1214) "It's so little that it doesn't have so much to say"
Draft:
29 ft 3 in (8.9 m) full load 58px. (yours are from 63px to 66px (9,6 to 10,05 meters). That is a little to much. but if you have multiple references that say something else...

oh that circular thing above the shaft should perhaps be a bit more forward.

will you be doing all of Battleship row?

Absolutely great! Will you, however, also provide a 1938/39 version of her?

Are you sure that aircraft crane is appropriate? It's the one I drew for the Baltimore class cruisers - way more "modern" (relatively speaking) than what was likely mounted on the old battleships...
