Stunning work in this thread by all entrants! Picking a winner will be tough I’m sure! Perhaps we could have a thread where all the drawings are posted collectively?

I second this, put all drawing below each other with a poll in a seperate thread.

Congratulations to Gollevainen for his incredible drawing. Detailed and masterfully drawn.

Thank you all for appreciating my drawing. I think they were much better; I liked BB1987's Kirishima, Garlicdesign's Rodney or MitcheLL300's Karel Doorman. I think they were better than my Neptune.

Again, congratulate Gollevainen and to thanks for showing one of the best drawings ever seen on Shipbucket.

Thanks.

Thank you also for your patience with my poor English.

Congratulations to Gollevainen. It was an excellent drawing from the Grandmaster of Soviet military hardware.

Congratulations to Gollevainen and all who took part.

I have no detailed feedback for this challenge.

I do have some feedback on the scoring mechanism however.
It was actually quite hard to score these. 1 to 10 is a wide range and its hard to judge where something falls within that spread.

SB style for example, 1 would probably be toddler scrawl but where does the baseline bog-standard SB style following the style rules to the letter fall? 7? 8? 9? Does having super detailing and slightly boundary pushing shading gain you extra points or should it detract points (presumably the most gorgeous drawings will score high on the quality score anyway?).
Everyone had the basics right so in my view everyone scored highly.

Accuracy was hard to judge without intimate knowledge of the vessel drawn. Again, what is the difference between the scales, 1 to me is completely the wrong ship or scaling messed up, but judging 8-10 is hard. Accuracy is often subjective at this scale, but I took it to mean more accurate detail = more points.

So perhaps future contests could have say 1 to 5 as ratings instead? Its just hard to have fine granularity that everyone can be consistent on.

For example, Blackbuck's CB18M and reytuerto's Rodman 101 were probably about the best that can be achieved on a small craft at this scale but scored very low overall. They don't look visually impressive but technically they are just as good works of SB drawing as the bigger ships.

I completely agree -- absent some sort of objective quantitative metric, excess precision is unhelpful. I think I've only ever scored these challenges on a 1-3 scale, and possibly scaled it as necessary (e.g., 3-7-10).
