How you make the shading?
With which program? Gimp?

I'll try to explain (sorry for the language).
All the paint in the Paint
1. Use ready-made images with a shadow. As the workpiece.
2. Cut and paste .... and that's all

300 years to cut and water the grass. And you get beautiful English lawn ....A very simple secret.....

Beautiful ships - dare I say, better-looking than most of the historical Russian ships!

Agreed, and with far better Main Battery layouts as well!

just great!!!!!!!

Great drawings, as usual, but, my dear Rurik, don't you think the choice of the name 'Tsushima' is terrifyingly inappropriate given what actually happened there, on those terrible, frightfully hazy and dark hours of May 27-28, 1905? I'm sure no Russian sailor with their pride intact would appreciate such an affornt to their honor! It's as if the Japanese would decide to name a destroyer JNS Halsey, or the RN would decide to name one of their Battle-class destroyers HMS Beachy Head or HMS Bantry Bay, or the French and Spanish, for that matter, naming a man-o'-war Trafalgar (Though, in fairness, the Spanish could, considering the bulldog-like, spirited fight they put up at that battle!)
