Can the drawing be a ship/vessel that already appears in the archive?

Either a redraw of a later/earlier version of a drawing that exists, or a complete redraw of one of the early gif drawings that still exist in the archive?

Amazing work Eswube.

Only query that came to mind was that all of the British / Commonwealth aircraft are all marked as 'Warhawk' when the British named them 'Kittyhawks'?

Nice to see you back Hugo.

17,000 tons would not be big for what is a mini-battlecruiser. I would back your cruiser against a Panzerschiff any day.

Definitely different!!!

A well executed drawing of a novel design.

It looks like the turrets have just had dismountable structures built around them to provide the flight decks fore and aft?

From the bow: 20mm Oerlikon 2pd pom pom Bridge tubs - either .303 twin Lewis guns or .50 Browning singles Single 3" At times the British put machine gun mountings on the top of the torpedo tubes. There are a lot of pics of the machine gun and cannon mountings if you search under 'Airfix MTB'. I hope...

Unfortunately while the placing of boats may not be ascetically pleasing, the Americans did it for 15-20 years with their carriers and I would think one of those German Naval Attaches may have noticed this and passed it on to the Kriegsmarine. https://www.dropbox.com/s/m3za7zuqq5r7nw0/US-boats.PNG?d...
