Here we have the refitted HMS Göta Lejon! Further scavanging other people's drawings and partsheats, I've(hopefully) raised to late 30s standard!
Hope you like it!

The last versions looks ok
I would
- move X & Y turret forward. The hull is too shallow for magazines there. You also have props running right out the hull in the middle of your aft magazine. The X turret should be just over the aft 12cm mount. The secondaries need aswell to moved forward by the same length
- Be carefull with shadeing. Look att good watercolors or prints of ships for the right shades. But beware - it is not liked at SB.

Well, continuing with the moding...

All guns must be displayed with their barrels at zero elevation unless physicaly incapable of doing so.

Source Materiel is always welcome.

I don't know if the Gyrostabilized Bofors 40mm is capable of zero elevation. I "borrowed" them from psilander, who made them at 45-ish elevation. If it looks better though, I can redo them to zero.

@KHT you have to credit Bezobrazov for his excellent badge for HSwMS Göta Lejon

At the very momment I entered this page and saw your comment, I was just on my way to do exactly that... for the third-ish time before being side-tracked...
Should that be said in the picture or in the post?

You could set a bracket after the bracket with the ship drawer like this:
(KHT) (CoA by Bezobrazov)
or set a bracket beneath the badge only with the name (Bezobrazov)
The most common is the first though.

I would still move the aft turrets forward about a centimer in the pic. The belt should not be raised to the top side of the ship, keep it as a straight line maybe a meter or two over the wateline, maybe lower at the ends.

Look att IRL designs for inspiration - like the Iron Duke or QEs of the same era.

About the badge - It is heraldicly correct. but it isnät in the style that the Royal Swedish navy depicted them.
