Old Steam Ship by Alan Bickley

Excellent sketch Alan , one of my favourite vessels the VICs and Clyde Puffers . Still a few around in preservation and can be seen sailing occasionally, of course sone trawlers were of a similar design.

Great sketch Alan. Super detail.

A little beauty ✨️ 😍

That puff of steam/smoke brings everything alive for me, nice one.

Good old steam, excellent sketch Alan.

This has a lot of charm to it Alan

Another great boat Alan, I would be interested to know how long it took you

Thanks guys appreciate your support. Trevor, I never time myself but probably no longer than 10 or 15 minutes… just straight in with a Rotring Ticky 0.2.

Love the detail

Lots of character in your sketch Alan.

Solid feeling to this, and the smoke makes the difference

Great sketch alan

This is lovely. It reminds me of the old British coaster in John Masefield's poem Cargoes.
