pm the latest version of it to me. and I shall have fun
...and what you think it could have been equipped with. (would love you'r comment on that)
That just hideous and the reference on it is to bad for me to work on. And at the moment I have an good idea of an Long Beach replacement... the era of battlecruisers is gone and battleships is gone. The only reason Russians have Kirov is because It's the only one of the few ships in there navy that really can compensation it's age with missile firepower!

Didn't really do much to it. Re-added the offset limbo (I like it), put it on the template, added the ships badge, and played "colouring book" with the underwater hull.

Offset Limbo is definately kosher; otherwise, now you've switched to the standard 4.5-in twin, why so far forward? You could bring it closer to the bridge and save some hull by shortening the length; that apart, very nice
I'd bring the Limbos down to deck level. Also, from a metal working perspective I have to say you're looking at a rather expensive ship with all those complex cutouts et al.
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error
