    Excellent work - has that salt air feel to it. Your brothers - brother-in-law is also very talented.

    Getting that much "feel" in a vector is pretty awesome.

    Here is your picture with some fractal cloudiness thrown in. It doesn't come close to detail of the oil painting, but it does add some drama.
    I like your work! - Andrew

    Egg,
    Really great job! I've been working on a ship at sea off and on for a while now. Still have a ways to go...

    Lovely drawings Egg and the ship in the background I think is one of the Harrison Line ships, Black funnel with red band between two white bands and their hulls were black with red boot topping. I've posted what is one of my favourite pics. of Manchester Docks, No.9 Dock, you can see the huge grain ellevator at the head of the dock and the old steam heavy lifting crane "Mammoth"
    In the foreground is the tour boat MSC Silver Arrow which took you around the docks and then up the MSC to Latchford all for a few bob. Sadly none of this remains anymore but I think the three dry docks and pontoon are preserved by volunteers and old employees of the Manchester Dry Docks.

    Nice work Egg.

    Made me think of the old cigarette cards my grandfather used to collect - some were old liners illustrated in that style.

    It's full of mood and detail, Eric. I'm ashamed I didn't see it earlier!

    Love it.

    Love it a lot.

    My Best,

    Gary
