A new artist comes among us.......
Nice drawing!

VERY impressive drawing!

Thank you for your assessment, I apologize for the mistakes when I write through the translator, my native language is Russian.
There are still photos, but no calculations, if you want - to publish

Please do!!

That's where a lot of interesting things - http://altflotofag.forum24.ru/?0-13-0

Great drawings, are they part of a alt.history story?

Yes, it creates a world on the topic of Russian America

Yes, it is - although it´s bow form is a bit odd.

Btw, welcome to the board mangust! :o)

Wonderful drawings, thank you!

However, the pictures of Novoarkhangelsk refuse to appear. Would it be possible to reload them?

Thank you again...

Your drawing is most impresive
