If they fit in a casemate mount, they ought be able to fit in those turrets, my way of thinking.

There is a lot more detailing that could go into a drawing like this, drainage holes, ballast venting holes, refining the dive planes and indeed shading. That said it doesn't look like that bad of a design. Have you thought about perhaps streamlining the 4" mount with the sail?

Thought about it, tried it, didn't like the way it looked. As for the detailing, yeah, I've noticed it looks a bit sparce so I'll most likely fiddle with it some more.

FAA and Marine Aviation 1915-45

Paint schemes for carrier aircraft
1921-34: Overall LtGrey, yellow wings, tail in squadron/ship colors. It was also not uncommon for floatplanes assigned to Battleships and Cruisers to be painted in their own unique style provided they had the ship commanders permission to do so. The repainting costs came out of the ships operating budget, so that was the determining factor for most CO's. In a select few cases, well-to-do officers would pay for the repainting out of their own pockets.
1934-43: Fuselage Grey-Green, yellow wings (grey-green wings after 1940), undersides Sky Type S, tail either grey-green or squadron/ship colors
1941-46:
Continental Theater - Extra Dk Sea Grey/Dk Green, underside Sky Type S.
Equatorial Theater - Overall Dk Blue

(Note: My choice of aircraft is not up for debate. Period. Non-SB drawings on the sheet are merely placeholders until I do drawings of them.)

all of them ought look familiar. except for the few I've drawn myself, the majority are taken from various parts sheets and re-coloured (or not, as the case may be), with my own markings added. ;)

I meant that PWS-24, which isn't very well known plane outside Poland (well, actually in Poland too). ;)
