Description Not really too much done since the previous render of the same angle. Mostly railings, the anchor-chutes (which I'm most likely going to redo anyway) at the bow.

The life-boats were redone, bringing the model down to under 60,000 polygons before triangulation. I half-assed them originally, so redoing them helped. I might re-do them again in the future, make them look better.

I rotated the Gun Turrets 90*, and the corresponding elevation angles on the barrels, from bow (front) to the stern (back) are:
10*
20*
30*
15*

Haven't even started working on Anti-Aircraft Guns yet.

Impressive. Are you basing this on any specific ship?

Not really, though I did pull influence from the Pennsylvania-class BattleShips (IE: USS Arizona) for the superstructure modeling.

Mhmm... Looked convincing so I figured you'd be using something for reference.
