Here she is, and here is my repeated phrase: I think she's done?
The USS Mississippi (BB-23) 1908

Well, you did a fine job reshaping that bridge, and all other stuff except the anchor looks good. The anchor ought to be wider than you're showing, but that's a small thing to adjust.
It's almost amazing how she resembles a monitor or CDS, compared to her much bigger (and far prettier) siblings! - No wonder this design was so derided and considered the worst battleship design ever for the USN! - But your rendition is a fine one, and, IMHO Navarchos could use yours to update his!

Thanks Bezo,
What doyou think about the UW shading? Does it work?

I personally think it does! Maybe add some more layers of shading (say two pixels wide) just underneath the section from the forward bilgekeel to the aft. But other than that, she looks 100% business to me! (And I agree with Henrik on his comment. brown's an 'ancient' color choice nowadays...)
