Once again, excellent work!

I've never much liked the Yamato, though. A classic example of Japanese shipbuilding at their most maniacal; I can understand why people like them, though.

Nice work Alex!

Very nice looking ships that wasted very great quantity's of material. For the materials used on three hulls they could have built 5 ships similar to the U.S. Iowa's.

Nice picture. Not sure about the 5" guns though. Navweaps gives

Quoted

"Train Amidships Mounts: About -70 / +70 degrees"

... so if that is right, then they can't turn far enough to see the sides of the 5" turrets the way we see it in your picture.

Instead should be facing to the sides like on this picture.

As GromoBoy indicated, Anchors. Always useful to have those. :)
A bit more of the crane would be visible as well.
