Again great job ALVAMA! Are you also planning to draw her half-sisters PIERRE GUILLAUMAT and PRAIRIAL? They were also "Antifer-type" mammoths from the Chantiers de l'Atlantique yard in St. Nazaire, France. They had basically the same hull as the BATILLUS and BELLAMYA, but slightly different upperworks.

Nice one ace , you can be very simple to turn the ''oceanix orion'' in her first name as a merchant ship ''MV Kilindoni'' the Kilindoni was bought in 1990 for only 100.000 USD.
you should have to change some small things, but it could be done.

Looking quite good, but I wonder if the propeller was in fact like that. As it is it looks like something sticking out, after the ship was built

The vessel was drastically rebuilt later on and sailed till last year as the breakbulk ship MADRE: http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/pho ... lid=650794
You can actually still the see the original bridge! It was moved aft during the rebuild.

Alex look at my pictures and see how the propeller is situated.
Also take a note at the shape of the crane, and in both line-drawings it appears she has only one lifeboat (BTW I believe the two drawing are the same one only different in size)
