I happened to find a good drawing of the Swedish HMS Spica. I was surprised it wasn't already on Shipbucket - so, I doodled it up. It still feels like there's some detailing missing, but I can't figure out where...

I was also suprised it wasn't already covered; though Thiel did the Danish equivalent some time ago. That said glad to see it being done!

A good start. Seems to have some issues with the screws, and other details. Any way Thumbs-up.

Yes, I'm not entirely happy with those yet. I might need to steal some better ones off an existing drawing.

Thougth this one is a fail from our side as somehow Psinlander never posted these for uploading...

Psylander never follows Shipbucket shading conventions and these appear to be no exception.

So?
He has given the sole exception from those, and I expect nothing less from our swedish section than Psilander's great touch...

That being said, if any of you other bastards try to imitate his style... banhammer will be brought.

Because we are trying to a consistent style? That's the whole reason for the Shipbucket style?

In the Elder Days, before most current members joined, Psilander was granted a special dispensation to pursue his unique style. That said, Colosseum speaks aright to remind us that
(in this case) imitation is not flattery ;)
