Always nice to see a danish merchant vessel and as usual eminent drawn :D Have you some infos Novice? I'm asking because I'm suspecting her being a SS instead of MS ;)
Built by Burmeister & Wain she was a true motor ship, the engine supplied by the builder (who else?). Built in 1927 as Bretagne, for the Dansk Fransk company the ship was seized in 1941 by Argentina and was used by the Argentinian merchant fleet till scrapped in 1986.

Built in 1923 the Steelvendor was somewhat unique, as she was a motor-ship designed mainly for the Great Lakes service. Some coastelwise trips for U.S. Steel Products Co. were also undertaken, as well as some trans Atlantic voyages, In 1942 the ship foundered in Lake Superior.

Yay Novice! I love seeing Lakers in this thread.
@Zagor: It looks out of scale, could you provide some references? Also, the template is wrong. (No 10m, 20m, 30m marks, the 100m mark is not in the right font [should come as part of the template], your credit fonts are off, and you don't have the shipbucket watermark in the bottom corner.)

Zagor, Raxar
Indeed, it's not exactly in scale and needs some work besides it, though it's quite nice try.

You mean the height, not the breadth right? It doesn't look close at all really, the railings look tiny

Yes height. I would probably try to fix those smaller issues in next version, but for me its looks good, its not so easy to make it to be in size that real ship is, really i think ship is quit good, taking that i do not have expirience on drawing surface ships,
