Excellent drawings.

During the early 1920's the world's main shipping countries were building many new ships to replace those lost by WW1. The Scandinavians, following the success of Selandia in 1912, and many others were building motor ships, where ever they could. In 1920 the Norwegian firm of Otto & Thor Thoresen A/S, turned to the Dutch shipyard of J. & K. Smit's Scheepswerwen, Kinderdijk for several ships, all to be engined by Werkspoor Diesels. The first was the Salerno, with San Paulo and San Miguel following. After one year with Thoresen all ships were transferred to the Den Norske Syd-Amerika Linje, and the Salerno had a change of name to reflect her South American service to Salta. During WW2 the Salta was interned in Vichy France at Dakar, but following the Allied invasion of North Africa returned to Norway's services until 1956. In 1957 while under a Panamanian flag the former Salta collided with a submerged object and sunk of Honshu, Japan

As a side note the Den Norske Syd-Amerika Linje, was a joint operation between Det Bergenske Dampskibsselskab, A/S. J. Ludwig Mowinckels Rederi and Fred. Olsen & Co., all companies contributing ships which were all had names of South American places beginning with the letter S

Great work!

Very nice drawing, Novice. Particularly appreciate how the loading cranes and cables are detailed without being cluttered.
I'm less sure about the border lines between the plates (weld lines?). Isn't the relief in double color a bit much at this scale?

During the time of WW2 the Spanish had started on replacing their aging merchant fleet. The Compañía Frutera Valenciana de Navegación (COFRUNA), started on building two fruit carriers for their Canary Islands and Levant services, in 1943. The two ships to be named Alcira and Alcora, had steam engines and by 1945 were nearly completed. In 1945 the Compañía Trasmediterránea bought the two ships. The Alcira was renames Ciudad De Alcira, had passengers accommodation added for 26 in first and second class, entering the Canary Islands services of Compañía Trasmediterránea. The Alcora entering service a year later was renames Ciudad De Salamanca.
