Ring kissing, BB1987?

Aside from a friendly jab, looks better than the 12 x 14" original work I've been playing with for a week or so now....I like the Alaskas, and I like this take on it.

You've left the aviation gas line on the hull, which doesn't make much sense as there's no aviation contingent on this ship (which also doesn't make sense). You should give it a stern catapult like the other BBs and cruisers.

There's no reason for this not to have a mainmast with an SP fighter direction radar. Place a large lattice mast just ahead of the aft Mk.38 director.

By 1945, I would expect that the catwalk around the armored conning tower would be enclosed. It might not have actual glass windows but it will still have an overhead canopy.

uh?
don't get me wrong, i'm not offended at all, but i simply did not get the joke

i've updated the drawing in the form of a rough WIP with some points amended and others not yet, so ican fix them again if they still don't work; moreover may i ask you if you have a clean version of the aircraft catapult? i've extracted it from your 1945 Guam, but because there was some superstructure behind it i don't know wich parts are to be deleted and wich not.

Yeah - it reminds me that I need to post the sheet of the Alaska specific parts so all the kitbashers can use it.

The superstructure is just too tall. I feel like this ship would capsize in the first heavy seas...

The hull would be wider to accommodate the 14-inch gun turrets, so that might cancel out some of the problem.

I was getting that feeling too.

And yet nobody says anything about the Fusos...
