Hi StealthJester!

Getting better and better, the underwater hull is just perfect! The IMHO best-looking British WWI-era ship deserves a first-rate drawing. Hopefully you'll complete her soon (searchlights and rigging still need some attention, and are you really sure about the location of the small boat cranes - to me they are located abaft the forefunnel and in front of the aft funnel, but none abaft the aft funnel), well done so far!

Greetings
GD

very nice! only would use a slightly less dark shade for the hull shading, this shade really distracts from the drawing itself.

Just a quick note. I'll be taking a break from HMS Neptune to post her "half-sisters", the Colossus class dreadnoughts. Beginning with HMS Colossus as originally commissioned in 1911. Stay tuned!

Cheers!

Refined the hull shading on the existing drawings in keeping with my new Colossus class and Indefatigable images.

Next up: HMAS Australia c.1914-16 and HMS New Zealand c.1918 (as time permits).

Stay tuned!

Cheers!
