if you want Bezo, why not? :)
my idea was to work with the BB-71 drawing and replace the four terrier launchers with two talos ones turning it into a full conversion proposal for BB-70; i just don't have the time to draw her now.

that's a try for a personal design on the double end Talos, here drawn as a proposed and never implemented refit on BB-70 New Hampshire

Bezo, feel free to modify it as you will if your offer is still valid.

I love that bridge structure...kinda a USN 1960s version of the IJN's Takao-class! Great work!

I like this one. I suppose she has the double Mk 12 magazines?
interesting to note is that this ship most likely had to be ballasted to get to her displacement, as the volume would be filled much faster then it's weight reserve created by the deletion of the main guns. to my surprise, she even has some deck space left!

your assumption is correct Acelanceloet, the single-end Talos drawing had aready the double sized Mk12 magazine, so this one have it too, and on both sides.
and i was also quite suprised when i ended up with all that deck space between the mack and the aft Talos directors, i expected to have less

This CRIES for SPS-2 or a later equivalent. Cries for it. Accept no half-measures! I'd personally replace SPS-39/52/72 aft with SPS-48, replace the after SPS-30 with SPS-2 or SPS-34, and see how it looked.
