Certainly an awesome piece of work. My only problem would be the metal handrails.....'v'

Just a couple of crits: usually, a ship of the line, unless it had been warped into harbor to be placed into drydock for repairs would not be this close-in to shore. During the period these ships were used, 1790s to 1815, because they were manned by mostly pressed men (compulsorily enlisted, taken against their will) and a lot of jail scum, the captains and admirals would not anchor close to shore. The ships would be anchored further out in the harbor and only the officers and trusted men would be allowed ashore, usually only to the dockside to await supplies. The officers just could not trust that the men would not run, or desert the ship. Also, you have the ship coming too fast (from the size of the bowwave) and likely to crash into the dock. Also, on the yardarms that you have shown unfurled sails, you also have rendered the second set of furled sails as well. This is a mistake, both sets are not to be rendered shown. The Hankster created two sets of sails, furled and unfurled, to show different sail configurations for different weather settings. The same goes for the flags on the model masts. Only one set should be rendered, not two, or all three sets. Also, the ship in general is too high out of the water. She should be lower, approximately half way up the lower black banding, or wale. These crits are not just being nit-picky, they are true nautical and historic observations....you are on the right track, just do a little more research on the subject, is all.

Great scene, I'm not as picky as FitArtistSF about use of different sail sets but I do think the captain is coming in a little hot and is about to have a hard time with the imoveable dock. LOL. Color blend of sky and sea is good.
