The large bracing was added to the rear Mk.38 gun director tower after the shakedown cruise to alleviate vibration problems.

Still has pixel issues, ie not black lines, all over. Other than that, she looks good!

Can you be more spacific, like point an example out so I can fix it?

There are several sections of the bottom of the hull that are off-black:

Here I have filled in the black areas with pink and most of the other areas with white. Please note that several sections of the bottom of the hull are still grey. There are also some areas on the funnels and mast that were not black as well.

Interesting that none of you have noticed the large late-war foremast which only came about on BB-55's September 1944 refit. ;)
