Hi, i've been on here a few times looking at people's work. After a long time and a lot of hard work here's my first attempt.

I hope its up to par :)

L 20 e was a design for a class of battleships to be built in 1918 for the Kaiserliche Marine during World War I. The design was selected on 2 October 1917, and construction was to have started 11 September 1918.

First welcome aboard
As for Photobucket resizing images, there is a solution (sort of) in this thread

Just enable the "Display my linked photos in their original sizes" checkbox.

I would have thought I would have had at least one comment, positive or negative, about my drawing, not very encouraging to be honest. Thinking it was a big mistake posting on here :-(

I'm actually really happy someone has done this design finally, after reading about it a few years back, from what I can see, it looks about proper, though might what to increase/add shading on the barbettes ;)

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

Until we can see it in proper scale it's hard to see all the details.
From what I can see it looks pretty good and I can see no obvious mistakes. The vents near the aft barbettes might need some work but they aren't clear at the moment due to the resized image. I assume this is the L20a, since the L20b had the crane aft of the funnel but otherwise seems very similar. The L20 is one of the German never-weres I've been waiting for.
