You're doing a fine job, Karle. Colosseum's advice is sound; keep researching and refine your drawings. It took me one failed attempt and almost six months to get Richelieu to look right. Taking your time is a good thing, especially when there are higher priorities in your life.

Thanks. While I am figuring a few things out, mainly the evolution of the Arkansas during 1943-1944 I have decided to share a preview of the Missisippi in 1920.



I am terribly sorry Darth Panda, not much of your New Mexico can be used as it is wrongly scaled, about 6 pixels or so. Don`t know if that is enough of a margin to do a full remake.

Also, I have recieved very good materiél on the Tennessee and Colorado classes during WWII, and I am wondering if these are taken.

West Virginia has been drawn, but if I recall no one has drawn either Tennessee or California. Mississippi looks good!

The pic of the West Virginia is after her rebuild that makes her resemble the South Dakota, There is also one of the Maryland but it's of her 1945 look. I personaly think it be cool if we had Shipbucket Images of all of Battleship Row as they looked at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack.

Personally I will not vouch for the accuracy and authenticity of any of the American battleships in the archive except my own (and they all need updating with the new parts). Just looking over the ones we have now I can find many small errors stemming from not enough research being performed.

I would suggest that those who draw the USN of World War II do a better job or I will start redoing all their work.

For authentcity-sake that might be the best solution. My suggestion is to see how it goes and then determine if you need to redo the American ships.

spoken as an diplomat!

Anyway I am referring mainly to the BBs that are in the archive now prior to karle's contributions (about which we have already discussed in this thread).

Do you include Alvama's drawings of Texas and Arizona in that statement? I think those look pretty good.

It should be noted that there are some errors. Although, that might be my drawings, or his drawings.
