Last month I drew a what-if design for a Confederate ocean liner on the assumption that the South became independent and forged strong relations with Britain. It was my first attempt at a vessel of that size and I'm impressed with the results though I feel there are things I could have done differently or better. I wouldn't mind drawing an ocean liner, real or imagined, again in the future.

Credited to Rowdy36 for the parts I borrowed from the Queen Mary.

Although a nice looking ship, your drawing has some discrepancies.
* The hull is of the 1930's but the stern looks too modern.
* The superstructure, especially forward looks too modern, when compared to the hull and funnels.
* As I believe it to be a steamship, than there are not enough vents in the funnels area, those were necessary both for air intake and ventilation.
* During the early part of the 20th century, up to just after WW2 most Transatlantic liners had also a large cargo capacity. Your ship is lacking in that respect.
Other than the above it is quite nice.

I'll remember that if I ever design another liner in the future.
