I just complete the new design for the hull and surprisingly with its results. Thank you for the recommendation of Rick and Chris and helping me develop the ship model.

The photo shown the output of the first prototype.

Looking very good indeed!

But the deck is not flat...?

Ski Jump, just like the British Carriers

Ski jump, like Rick said. Good-looking prototype.

Henryk - as he says it is a prototype build.

But also, the real ship has a curved deck - a lot of modern aorcraft carriers have to assist with the take-off.

See the actual picture of the ship below.

It’s sure! But I meant these places (red arrows).

single sheet of paper

Dam fine design, would love to get my paws on one of these!!
As Rick pointed out, single sheet and I would think the odd extra rib

Rick we Brits don't have any carriers, not had one since the early 80's
To get round the costly problems the government scarped them all, then the MOD worked out if they called them "Through deck Cruisers" technically we had no carriers. Bean counters happy and MOD nearly happy.
Oh and no we still don't have any now until we can afford the planes to put on the two decks!!
