Yeah, something like this. And btw. country and ship names are generally to be written in significantly larger fonts than credits. ;)

Something like that. It depends on what font you're using. There should be a noticable difference.
BTW, I like your ships.

It depends on the software you use. For MS Paint I personally recommend 11 & 8 or 10 & 7, with the larger being prefered. If you use Paint.NET (or any other program that allow fractional font sizes), 10.5 & 7.5 are what I use.

This is a nice start! Depending how much of the work is your own you can also add your name to the credits.

I don't think anyone is doing either Dar Pomorza or Lwów, so You're probably free to do it.

However Rhade and I would be grateful if You would avoid doing any ships of the Polish Navy (at least without consulting it with us). It's nothing legally-binding - it's just that we're already working on these. ;)

Indeed, we work on Polish Navy complete ship codex.

Sail ships are pretty hard to drawn, you sure you can make it ?

Lwow is a challenge being a sail ship. Plus it had those ave inspiring foux gun battery painting,
Is a small boy my father read too me "Znaczy Kapitan" by Karol Olgierd Borchardt.
So I really like to draw this ship.

So I ask you to let me have a go at it.
If you wish I can do it as Dutch "Nest".
I usually don't do real ship. I'm more in fantasy designs.
This will be my first real ship.

So far I'm using line drawing from "Flota spod Bialo-Czerwonej" by Jan Piwowonski, and a picture of the model from Muzeum Wisly, as base.
I got the basic measurements for the pic.
560 pixels overall and 423 pixels waterline.
The hull is going along nicely.

Sails will be the challenge. Ok, go for it, you start from the most hard core end, but who knows ... ;)
