The aft casement-guns are situated wrongly on the side view when compared to the top view.

I know the elevation view is the one I am working off. the plan view is one of several versions I have found. I am going off the lithograph. I have attached the three main drawing I am basing it off off. there is a different s between them all, the top two are closer than the plan sketch. I will just have to try to keep it closer to the top elevation view. But some times I will just have to punt and take a guess or make a decision right or wrong and see what other people think.

The lithograph looks pretty close to the official plan, more so than the drawing, which I think is from one of Siegfried Breyer's books.

Aren't those triples guns too close to the duals?

if it was built they may have moved them some but I am following the lithoghraph and I think they are about right.

Well here it is I think complete. Of course that is for the viewers to judge I am sure there will be advice given. So now I have to figure My next project. I think I might try a early passenger liner about 1900. Not on of the big ones. any ideas. I am also going to try an FD scale drawing I think I know what I will try on that one. The Nautilus from the movie version 20,000 leagues under the sea.

I'm not sure, but shouldn't those things on the funnels be outlined in black? And the white one pixel line on the "front" of the funnels seems odd.
Great draw though! :D
