I really enjoy the AU thread "Kriegsmarine 1946", and recently it got me thinking, why not make an similar thread for the IJN? Here are the first two ships, ideas I got from a website I saved pics from YEARS ago. this is an open thread...anyone can post ships!

The fourth Yamato-class BB is - like Shinano - converted to a carrier during construction, but is completed with an enclosed bow, deck-edge elevators, and a slightly different stern.

The fifth Yamato is completed as a hybrid, like the Ise-class conversions. The large catapults are angled off to port and starboard so as to - obviously - prevent aircraft from being launched directly into the superstructure.

That underwaterhull on the Yamato is not correct, saved as JPEG...

Interesting ideas though, love to see more especially cruisers and destroyers.

The fifth Yamato is (obviously) a kitbash of the Yamato and Shinano from the SB archives. I'm not going to delude myself into thinking I can create masterpieces like the drawings I've seen on here...I'm a kitbasher through and through!

eltf177: As a matter of fact, I've got a CL almost ready...I just need a drawing of an Ohka...anyone drawn one of those on this forum yet? I looked, but didn't have any luck.

Shinano is an old wrongly hull, and I still have to redo it..
