Its nice to see the Nelson coming along in the stocks. She was a very functional looking ship, and I like my BBs to look functional, this ship looks like she could take on the best in the world and beat it!

My only minor nitpick is the 4.7in AA guns. Should they not have three-pixel barrels? There is a version of it on the RN Weapons sheet but you're version is probably better overall in detail.

Excellent to see this one :) As its still wip there are a few areas that you'll still be working on: the bridge still seems unfinished, and it doesn't compare precislely with photo's and drawings of the ship. With the gun tubes, you're showing a double pixel line for a lower calibre aa, but a single black with dark grey for a larger calibre. The ships railing also appear too dark; all minor 'nit picks'.

Are you going to finish her? You made such a great start with her it would be a pitty to leave her that way.

Sorry for raising the dead but I've just been reorganising the GB folder and was wondering why Nelsons are missing. It's a shame this drawing never made it in... so near!
