may I suggest putting your former username in your signature, to avoid trouble with the drawings already done and credited with the old username?
that said, nice work, and looking forward to the top view.

Thanks acelanceloet I hadn't thought of that. Im hope that I'll be able to draw this with multiple views like I did preview in a very preliminary WIP.

Very nice progress.

I wonder if the forecastle break and the second line under the forecastle towards the stem would be better in dark grey rather than black?
Other than that this looks pretty good.

How are you coming on Mackensen and Ersatz Yorck?

Mackensen is coming along slowly but surely, Ersatz Yorck is coming along slowly though.

I'm also drawing tops views for GK 4542 and GK 4541 and L 20 e. I'm having trouble drawing at the moment, can't keep my concentration long enough haha.

Hi everyone.

I've done a little more to the L 20 e and just want to see what everyone thinks so far. I've redrawn the front of the main turrets, and I'm quite pleased with them myself, I've also added to the plan view.

I'm also wondering if people think the colour scheme is accurate?

I do apologise for the minor updates from my previous post but I am finding it difficult to find the time and to concentrate for too long.

Hope I'm heading in the right direction and not boring people with the L 20 e.

Thanks.

Tempest.
