The First World War Battlecruiser Challenge was an Shipbucket challenge held in 2020. It was set up by Kiwi Imperialist

Original thread: http://www.shipbucket.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=195841#p195841

The Second World War aircraft carrier challenge generated some amazing entries. With that now in the past, it is time for the First World War battlecruiser challenge. Participants are asked to draw a fictional battlecruiser in active service at some point between the 28th of July 1914 and the 11th of November 1918. The battlecruiser does not have to be a participant in the First World War, or an equivalent conflict in its respective universe. It could, for example, belong to a neutral power. Unlike the Second World War aircraft carrier challenge, this challenge has the standard submission period of one month. Good luck everyone! Please read the challenge rules relating to submissions and drawings.

Design Requirements

   Your submission must depict a battlecruiser in active service at some point between 28 July 1914 and 11 November 1918.
   The battlecruiser should have a design speed of at least 24 knots (28 mph, 44 km/h).
   The main guns of the battlecruiser must have a calibre between 11 inches (28 cm) and 15 inches (38 cm).


Challenge Rules

   Each participant must submit a single image.
   The image should be a Shipbucket template modified to include the participant’s art. Templates which include a data sheet are allowed.
   One side-view of the participant's ship must be included. One top-view is also permitted, but not required. All other views are prohibited.
   If two views are included, they must depict the same ship at the same point in time.
   A textual description accompanying each submission is allowed, but not necessary.
   Off-topic posts will be reported to the relevant authorities.
   All art should be in Shipbucket scale.


This challenge will run until the 19th of September, ending at 23:59 UTC-12 (International Date Line West). A countdown timer can be found at this link.

A poll will be held after this date. Members of the Shipbucket community will have an opportunity to score, on a scale of 1 to 10, each submission in the following categories:

   Drawing Quality - The overall quality of the drawing. One might consider detailing, shading, and accuracy.
   Design Realism - How realistic is the design presented? Any accompanying text may be considered.
   Originality - Does the submission present a new and unique design, or is it a copy of an existing one?
