It looks like there is lack of passenger ships in ShipBucket so here is my humble attempt to improve the situation :mrgreen:
I used a schematic drawing of the ship and several old photographs, all found online.

Probably the first paddle steamer in shipbucket too.
Very impressive for a newbie post, very impressive indeed.

hile maybe not the first paddle wheeler see here, I agree with Hood, as it is quite impressive for a first post.
Good job and welcome aboard.

indeed, very good, but isn't the shading on the hull wrong?

First of all this is overally great drawing and hell of a deput (almost beats DP's entrance back in the days )

But few points:
1) the hull shading. Its completely off. We don't do it that way in the shipbucket. If you want to highligth the bulge beneath the paddles, then color the entire block with one shade bit darker than the rest of the hull, but not a stepped shading of multible colors.
2) the pitch black dots beneath the reeling?
3) the paddle itself should be outlined with black as everything else.

Thanks for your feedback.
Here's an updated version. I hope I was able to match the ShipBucket standards this time. Please tell me if there's still anything wrong.

Having looked with the magnifying glass in Paint I see very little wrong at all now.
The forward support struts on the ends of the mid deck might be better as a three pixel line black-grey-black rather than the single grey line you have at the moment. Other than that it looks pretty awesome. We eagerly await more...
