Here is a real basic copy and paste of ALMAVA's Arizona onto CHUCK SHIP ART's 1916 Lexington.

Thanks, I love your battlecruiser drawings. What are you working on next.

I have not been working on much. I did those when my real Job as a draftsman for a sturcural engineer was very slow. But now I am busy. So I still love looking at the site. Just after drawing all day on the computer I just can't get into drawing at night right now. Thanks for your complement. You done a great change updating to WWII configuration.

I understand, I'm a historical interpreter for the Historic Ships in Baltimore and the last thing I want to do when I get home is think about ships.

Maybe if her boilers got an overhaul. I don't know much about that kind of engineering though. Anyone with a better understanding of reboilering a 1916 ship have an opinion on the matter?
