Hello,

So, this is my first time actually drawing something that is naval related and so I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong section. At any rate, I've drawn the HMS Conqueror from the "infamous" World of Warships game made by Wargaming. I've taken Garlicdesign's very great drawing of the HMS Lion, stretch out the hull and then redrawing the superstructure from scratch. This drawing in particular is one with the 16-inch guns and the one coincidentally have a 3D model in the wiki. I hope the shading is alright and the ship itself have enough detail and "clutter" to it.

Also, I've taken parts from the "Part Sheet" which have credited the authors as "Various Artist" so should I credit it as such?

Thank You!

the drawing itself looks pretty good, there are some questionable design aspects of it but that is the fault of the wargaming designers not yours. parts such as guns, torpedo launchers and other things of that nature do not need credited

Overall not a bad drawing, looks good. Perhaps the WoW design is a little overkill in size but you've done a good job here.
The only style point I would raise is that you might want to use a darker shade of grey for the overhang shadows.

Hello,

Thanks for all the feedback! The WoW design is indeed unrealistic and I have a feeling that it's pretty empty despite the size of the ship. In any case, I've drawn another version of the Conqueror which have 18-inch (457mm) guns. I've done some rework and add some details regarding the overhang shadows and a missing door and ladder.

Thank You!

Indeed good work ! And the plans of Wargamming are not always easy or acurate... ;)
