Only thing missing is the topview, otherwise this is indeed splendid drawing and treatment that all USN carriers deserve.

it might be just me, but wasn't panel lining on the underwater hull not done? I am also certain the roundness of the hull is not equal over the fuel length, so the underwater hull shading is quite wrong, unless I am wrong about the hull shape?

other then that, I can only say that I want to ask for the saratoga and the other iterations in time as well? surely you work from pictures so the modifications of the base drawings should be possible.

Amazing work DP. I also think that Ace is right, and underwater hull is usually without the panel lines.
Now DP, you need to work on the top view...

I too think she is marvellous but can't help thinking there is a lack of shading at the bow to show the flight decks overhang.

Woah... beautiful drawing, DP. :shock: :D

Shouldn't she be mounting 5"/25 Mk.10s though? Currently the drawing is using open-mounted 5"/38 Mk.12s.
