This is my first work on the forum. To start submitted. My name is Dmitry I'm from Ukraine. Do not speak English so I can not answer deployed. All replies to this topic will distill over autotranslate.
Of the forum participants only know a colleague ALVAMA. With whom I communicate on the Russian forum fai.org.ru

Looks nice but the image seems to be blurred

that's because the image seems to be resized, the scale bar is shorter.

I'm very impressed! If it is your first drawing you might post it in beginners forum, but as I can see you have followed all sb rules. And very elegant. But there is an issue - as Trojan point out - the drawing seems blurred. It might have something to do with your image host, because when I uploaded the drawing on my pc it became ok ;)

Edit: Yep, it's resized I can tell.

just a nitpicking, Alsace was actually on my worklist, but since you have already completed her while i have not even started to search reference or her is fine to you to go on (i mean it's not a problem); on the other hand you had mainly reworked Redhorse's Richelieu retaining at least the entire hull, so i suggest you to add his name on the credits line.

Yes, everyone who registers himself into this forum and submits their drawings is expected to comply with the forum rules and regulations which can be found from this link. Most important is the crediting of orginal artists.

Just as an FYI, this appears to be the largest design with 3 quad 15-inch turrets. Three designs were drawn up:

1) Smallest with 3 triple 15-inch turrets
2) An intermediate design with 3 triple 16-inch turrets
3) The largest with 3 quad 15-inch turrets

As the quad 15-inch turret existed whereas neither the 16-inch gun nor a triple turret existed it was always assumed that the largest version would be chosen. However, according to FRENCH BATTLESHIPS the smallest design was chosen - apparently a team was visiting the UK where the triple 16-inch turrets for HMS "Lion" were to be built.
