The hell with 'worklists' -- I doubt he'd have even gotten around to it in the first place! At their best they're just fanciful wishlists and at their worst they choke people from wanting to do ships they like because "it's number 109 on some dude's worklist".
Send him a PM about it and keep working. I hope you guys understand that if I want to draw a ship, I'm going to draw it regardless of who "owns" it. It's happened to me enough times that I don't care to do it in reverse!

I have to Echo Coloseum's words here. Worklists are nice, but they're a statement of intent, and not an iron-clad claim. It's POLITE to follow them, but if someone has a ship on his list that you're dying to do (or, in your case, have accidentally started) just contact him/her, and work things out. Unless the other guy was already far along with the same ship, there's no reason to abandon yours.
Of course it can also be a nice change to work together on a ship.

I fully second Colo and Miho here. That's why I have stated even in my signature that I'm always willing to discuss if I've got something on my list. And, as a matter of fact, I can thank both of them for my newly acquired status, since they were generous enough to allow me to rework some of their old works! So, that's the benefit of sharing and cooperation!

Great progress so far. I only have two points to make;
I've looked through my sources here, including Friedman's 'British Carrier Aviation' and I'm 99.9% sure that the flightdeck does not slope downwards towards the bow. From photos it appears that the forward portion is more rounded into the hull for aerodynamic flow and this might be the source of the optical illusion.
I've made new 5.5in guns for Hood much better than these which I attach here for your use.
