A lovely drawing of the great flagship of the man who came closest to being the God of the Seas made flesh, Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson.

There is no more beautiful ship in excistance than the Victory, the worlds oldest commishoned warship, flagship of the second sea lord commander in chief of the Royal Navy's home command, preserved in the dry dock in Portsmouth Harbor. She attracts more than 300 thounds visitors each year.

great

I love ships too, well done

Nicely done!

Thanks. I would have preferred to do a 3/4 frontal view with sails billowing on the high seas but the client wanted a side-on port scene.

Actually, the more unusual interpretation works well for that reason. HMS being the oldest commissioned ship in service (the USS Constitution being the oldest commissioned ship afloat, and interesting distinction), there are any number of classical portraits of *Victory* sailing on a wind. Modern technique might feel "wrong," and classical technique might feel like a copycat. Your *own* interpretation of *Victory* sailing large would, of course, be awesome. You clearly have an eye for portraying a man o' war, regardless of sailing or flying.
