Yes, entirely and wholeheartedly. Just because the drawing "looks pretty good" doesn't make it accurate. They are sorely lacking in details and have many parts that are just plain wrong. They are both very clearly just traces of source lineart without a lot of research put into it (Alvama has even said this to me occasionally). The same can be said about his Midway drawing and various others.

Unless it's one of the FD scale ships (for which he literally has thousands of photos of the real thing) or a Dutch ship, I won't vouch for the accuracy of those drawings.

Ah...thanks for clarifying. In that case, by all means, start going through the BBs and CVs.

Will you also do American Pre-Dreadnoughts at some point?

I Think It's perhaps a good Idea that we have som that Draw many drawings and som van take that drawing and redraw it later to The highets standards like colos Alaska. If you undersdand what I am thinking about.

Arizona in 1925:


I am in the process of adding similar canvas structure to all ships from 1918 and earlier.

Nice!

The turrets look much better now

They are definetly more subtle, in profile pictures, they don`t show at all.

Edit: I have just finished the Mississippi, you can find it at the previous page. Do you guys think I should do the Tennessee and the Colorado classes as well?

You should do all of Battleship row

It would also be nice if you could do the U S Navy Pre-Dreadnaught,s.
