As talked about on discord, but just put here for reference :P
- I use J.Scholtens as credit on my drawings
- There is no 'shipbucket.com' in the lower right corner
- the very pronounced knuckle in the bow is missing on your drawing
- There are some water outlets in the stern not shown on the current drawing (easily found because of 'rust' flowing out of them on pictures.

Welcome back!

Maybe the windows on the front of the superstructure need to be shaded a light shade to reflect the angle?

There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards
