Yes, rigging is the bane of a lot of artists...hence why I don't draw sailing ships.

Very nice work!
Coming from you, it's sort of a medal of honour!... I just don't know if the transmission cables are matching to the era of this ship. I simply don't know how many cables were needed for morse transmission and for verbal transmission between the ship and the port authorities. The big overhead line drawn I intend it to be a telephone line linking the bridge in the forward superstructure to the responsible guys aft, mainly those in charge of the mechanical parts (i.e. engine room). When I look at any warship of that time, I feel puzzled by the "spaghetti" of dozens of different lines for transmission!...

I didn't mention the rigging of the ships (masts and their supporting and working cables), I refered to the communication cables and wires, that's entirely different.

I honestly like what I'm seeing thus far! |

Well, they would certainly not order the ship as drawn now, as there are quite some issues with it  First of all, I count 5 different gun calibers, each requiring separate fire control, spotting, training and logistics. The fire control would be hard pressed to do it's job, as most antenna's are blocked by at least one other system. I would also have to dive into the workings of your powerplant, but I am certain about one thing: as drawn, your ship looks extremely blocky with an very short stern and even an filled up bow. Especially that bow I cannot find reason for the bulbous section, such a shape would only increase slamming in heavy weather in my opinion. |

In addition to ace's comments, I'd like to point out that even in the late stages of World War Two (1945), the Flakgerat 58 was only an experimental weapon, and did not even have a functioning prototype. |
