I just wanted to help but it seems like you know what you're doing.

Is the aft-overhang structure (just forward of the floatplanes) present on the source material? On the real Yamato, this was to protect the boats from blast damage. Since all the big guns are forward on these designs, such an overhang would seem an unnecessary feature.

Its all in Japanese, so its a bit hard to navigate, but its a treasure trove of Japanese designs from between the wars.

I've gathered all the drawings I've got on Japanese designs into one folder on Photobucket.
