The bow and stern look kinda short...other than that, nice work!

Indeed, originally Ise and Hyuga where supposed to be the third and fourth units of the Fuso class but their project was revised to improve the shortcomings of the preceding units, like the akward position of main battery wich forced to split powerplants between the main guns barbettes and the placement of the forefunnel literaly inside the foremast (tons of smoke into the spotting platforms).
The Ises improved this layout with a shorter forecastle (henche the bow looking a little short, the stern was that short on fuso as well), a 3-meter longer hull and with grouped turret 3 and 4 aft of the boilers, thus obtaining enough modifications to justify their own class subdivision.

meanwhile, added a WIP for Ise as well and fixed some errors on Hyuga.

They both look great! Are you planning on doing them at all stages of their careers? (By that I mean showing them after every refit? I know you're going to do them as hybrids.)

The main plan is 1917/1918, then post 1936 refit (either 1939, 1941 or 1942 depends on wich source i found is the best), and 1944/1945 (hybrid)

and, is anyone in possession of this drawing in full view?

it would be the perfect one for the pre-conversion layout but the aft-half seems nowhere to be found.
