Hi Andy!
I guess you had a very delicate work for attaching the decals on the hull. The depth gauges looks real.
By the way, how about adding a motor boat. Attached pictures #1,#2 are my Yamato 1/700 scale model. Here is a motor boat hanger.
You can buy the same scale 1/250 motor boat kit from DeAGOSTINI (pic #3). I think you well know it is a kit for the Akagi. For example issue 23's parts set includes it.
Best Regards,
Yutaro
