Not quite finished, just need to add anchors and additional mooring gear. Anything else?

Obvious issues that are somewhat intentional, limited conning tower view as well as being cramped, small air intakes (due to fears of seawater flooding in, rectified somewhat in the 1910 modifications) and lack of on deck toilet (also rectified somewhat in the 1910 modifications)

Very nice, but I'd remove the main stay from the topview since all it does is obscure the things below it.
Also, if pitching is a problem you might consider lowering the aft gun to deck level.
Oh and you've forgotten to colour in the gun shields on the fore and aft views.

*Ah, yes, I agree, the mainstay does make things harder to see, I'll remove it
*Well I'm torn between giving it slightly more stability or keeping it drier than on the main deck, also the pedestal it's on acts as a source of extra illumination (and ventilation in good weather) for the officer spaces
*I was planning on getting that done once solving the side view, otherwise I'd be editing it much more ;)
