Shipbucket

My first real Complete Shipbucket Scale ship, Moby Prince (Former Koningin Juliana) a Ferry that had a rather Sad fate after a long and varied career when she collided with a tanker in the port of livorno Italy on April 10th, 1991 (the subsequent fire led to the deaths of all but 1 on board the Ferry, making it one of the worst disasters in italy's Recent history)

as Koningin Juliana from 1968 to around 1980


from 1980 to 1984 following the Merge with Sealink


how she appeared from 1984 to early 1985 as the "Holland Trade Ship"


From 1984 to 1991 as the Moby Prince

Excellent work here. I salute you for going after a merchant ship, a ferry as your first SB real life drawing. Thank you
I would like to add that the colours you have used seem a little dark, and i know that some will comment on your underwater hull shading, which is also a little dark IMHO.
None the less a very fine effort, and I hope to see more of your work here.

Very nice work!
Indeed, if I understand things correctly, the shading of hull, particularly in the bow area, is bit awkward, but overall it's a very commendable effort.

Welcome aboard!

This is certainly a fine entrance and a well drawn ship.
The underwater shading could be refined, but that skill will come with experience and practice. I look forward to seeing more of your works.
