Here, what I found in my archive. Shame to say, but it is a real mess and hard to find something. But luckily i had a success: some for 40 mm Bofors and one with 57mm Bofors Mk 1.

Unfortunately, there is nothing serious for 3 inch Mk 33. I purchased it from here:

There is 3D-view and dimensions. I can measure the mounts for myself too, if you want.

It would help a lot, when I updating the drawing to correct scale.

Prototyping of the central superstructure - first iteration (paper).
A height of the standard director platform seems to be not enough. Another half of a meter will be needed.
Oerlikon nests used raising tubes, because these guns intended to engage surface targets.
Possibly I can add safely another 30 cm width each side to ensure a little more space for the loader to operate easily.
Now ammo storage rack is single, for both guns, maybe I can enlarge the ammo rack platform to the funnel side and add there one or two more ammo boxes.
Any suggestions and corrections are welcome!

I don't feel competent to give any advice, but I like what I see.

Looks like great progress and the layout looks good.

Excuse me for the long delay!
The work continues, but not too much things worthy of a photo.
The hull is complete, now preparations for the painting goes on. Too much sanding these days. :)
Some other details are ready for 3D-printing, I will order them soon. You can see the bridge and mix of some tiny details - loudspeakers, deck lamps, handrail knobs and two types of rope craddles. More will be ready soon.

Wow! Don't be so modest. It is "worthy of a photo". :D

Thanks! I mean, there is no so much visible changes. But hull is completely closed, all systems working and checked (the only exception is the radar - it needs a mast to be mounted, but its motor working, still hidden in the hull).
So everything i will do from now on will be on the exterior :)
