You will see the image with slight alterations to concept sketch 10 is as my client has requested, now on the canvas.

My feeling having given it a few coats of thinking about it, viewing it over a few hours, is the ship should be reduced by about 1/8  so I propose doing that later today or tomorrow on the canvas.
Once that is done, I’ll tidy up the underlying drawing to make this new painting of the British India Steam Navigation Company ship Chupra, look more ‘Chuprish’.
That will include moving the stem a little further to the right and more vertical.
The stem has already been shifted to compensate for showing as requested, more of the stb side of the ship than is revealed in consept sketch 10; I think it needs to more a few mill further.
Your comments and observations please?
