I would like to draw USS Langley, the first US carrier, unless anyone has any objections. I can't find it on this site and I have some nice source material for her.

An interesting variation would be the Langley as AV-3, a seaplane tender. She was lost transporting Army fighters during the Java Sea battles after repeated attacheds by Japanese Navy D3A1 divebombers.

I believe I have some side drawings for the Langley on my home computer.

I could use all the help I can get! I've pretty much done the hull, which is the easiest part, I'm now fighting my way through the mesh of girders and wires under the flight deck.

That last link is amazing and just what I need for the superstructure. I wonder how many hours of work he put into that.
