As always, quite excellent art-wise but sadly lacking in some details. I think you need to spend more time thoroughly researching your ships before you just leap into drawing. I'd also like to see an evolution so to speak -- just drawing the ship as it appears in 1945 does not (in my opinion cut it).

Your Kingfishers are not sitting on any catapult pedestals but rather floating in midair. :P

The radar fit for this ship is also incorrect in some places - notably you are missing SG surface search sets and FD Mark 3 fire control radar above the foremast. As always, you can find good reference at NavSource, especially for famous ships like BB-35.

This one will need to be absolutely perfect in my eyes before I am ready to sign off on it!

All that said, I applaud your effort and am glad to see someone else drawing USN designs of WWII! :)

It's about time somebody got around to working on the last first generation dreadnought battleship left in the world.

I fixed the plane! About the raders yes you are right, but also I did add those radars, but my means my reference drawing didn't show them properly, since I know the names I have fixed them with your ones!

It's looking much better, now, ALVAMA.

I'll help with the radars, but I can't guarantee I can really do anything until next Monday. :)

Alvama, your Kingfishers are too low now. they need to sit on the catapult, two pixels above where you have them. Nice work though.
