Just an example, I’ve never seen this Ken painting anywhere else, I can’t even find it on Google images.

That painting is included on the Chapter 7 title page of Ballard's 2005 book The Lost Ships of Robert Ballard. It is a reprint of Lost Liners, but has an extra chapter on warships added which includes the sinkings of the Hood and Bismarck. I have that book. Here is its Amazon page: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1592234240/?tag=encyclopediatita I'll post a photo of the page here soon.

That’s right, it is. I have that book also. I would like to see an updated version, with the Doria all collapsed, and the paintings Ken did of Yorktown.

I guess I don't need to post the photo of Bismarck here since you have the book and you already posted the pic. Instead, here is a painting of the Andrea Doria's superstructure collapsed.

Ha! I think we posted those simultaneously. I found this one recently, not sure how accurate, but if the bow has given way, that sucks.

Yeah, I've also been a big Titanic fan since I saw the 97 film at age 5 on VHS.

By the way, you're quite a handsome man and I love your stocking cap! I have one just like it, only it's striped, and I also have quite a lot of facial hair like you. I think I'll send you a photo of me wearing it.

Here is the photo of me I said I'd post. I'm 25 years old. You can see that I'm wearing my striped stocking cap in the pic and I'm holding the Blu-Ray copy I own of my favorite Titanic film, A Night to Remember. I don't have as much facial hair as I usually do in this pic because I have my barber shave my head hair, mustache, and beard all off at the beginning of every month.

P.S: My mom took this photo of me.
