Thanks Eswube!

The 5.25 turrets were really rather cramped, which interfered with the firing rate, although this might be alleviated somewhat by using a smaller gun with lighter ammunition. If anything, you could try and make them somewhat larger
That's a fair point, I'll look in to size options. My original design was smaller still but the current one has ended up being the same length and width as the 5.25in but taller - adding 1 pixel would give it the same length as the post war 4.5in and the 5.25in on the HMS Vanguard drawing, while adding 2 pixels would give it the same length as the US 5in twin (though two of those turrets are square shaped rather than circular like mine).

I'll hopefully be posting some more ships (both WW2 and modern) here over the next few weeks, starting with the Bay Class light aircraft carriers:

Howdy Rowdy,
Good looking CVL in the US manner.
You list 2x4" but I am having trouble seeing where those are fitted?

Yeah, a nice take on the Independence Class with some British touches too. Looks very utilitarian and capable.

I'd forgotten to include those, is there anywhere you'd recommend them going? Maybe on sponsons underneath the aft twin 20mm?

Just in front of the bridge, replacing the twin 20mm there.
