it seems that not a lot of people here has heard of shipbucket here.
link to the site here
From the about section of the Shipbucket site.
"The Shipbucket Project aims to create a unified and democratized archive of ship and aircraft drawings in a single uniform scale and style. Our raster pixel art is easy to edit and remix, meaning new authors can easily contribute to the project with tools as simple as MSPaint (or as advanced as Photoshop). Shipbucket aims to be a premier learning tool for naval design (both civilian and military), and our format is suited for amateur hobbyists and serious professionals alike."
I'm posting this thread so that people will understand what i'm talking about whenever I mention shipbucket.
This is supposedly a form of pixel art in which side views of ships are made using programs ranging from MS Paint to Photoshop. the scale of these drawings are all at the uniform scale of 2:1 (2 pixels : 1 foot). There are tutorials on the wiki explaining further on the style and how to make these drawings and there's also an entire community forum for this as well.
What this has to do with Titanic? There are already some drawings of the Olympic Class Liners on the site but the problem is that they are extremely outdated and full of inaccuracies as these were all the way back in 2006/2005 from limited information at the time compared to now.
I already have done my best efforts to "update" the design but despite these attempts. Some inaccuracies still persist due to being beyond my skills in drawing in this style. The whole thing would have to be completely redrawn thanks to being made with limited and outdated information.
Even with these updates, it still doesn't line up.
I am thinking about messaging some artists who have made titanic drawings/plans before to try their hand on the shipbucket style. This drawing is going to have to undergo a complete redraw if it's going to be truly up-to-date.
