I know someone has laid claim to the Ryuujou but if it ok I'd like to take a crack at it as I found some really good blue prints of her.

Feel free to go on, there are at least four IJN Aricraft carrier classes that I might plan to draw before focusing on the Ryuujou. Just make sure that the blueprint is accurate, as I've found some that ended up beign wrong myself. This for example seems good at first glance but sports a wrong undwrwater hull a the stern and mixes up many pre an post 1934 features: the funnels are shown as they were heightened after the 1934 refit, but at the same time the blueprint shows three 127mm guns on platform, a feature dating before the refit (there were just two after). It also shows the keel ballast, another post-1934 thing.

here are the blue prints I found, I don't know enough to tell you if their acurate.

This one is possibly a bit more accurate, for Ryujou as of 1933, but the one you have is a close second.
anyway, be wary that the MGs in 1933 are not the 25mm ones but 13.2mm quads.

I'll get started as soon as I can find the time(some SB scale drawings of a B5N1 or B4Y1 would look good with the 1933 version of Ryuujou).

Changed the color of the Momi & Wakatake-class Destroyer-Escorts (and in turn the PB-31- and PB-46-class Patrol Boats) to 'in-progress' so as to show the initial posting of the thread.

Updated to show the Minekaze- and Kamikaze-class DDs (and in turn the PB-1-class Patrol Boats) as "in-progress".

Updated the official list so as to show the plans for the PB-1, PB-31, & PB-46-class Patrol Boats, the Momi & Wakatake-class Destroyer-Escorts, and the Minekaze & Kamikaze-class Destroyers. Also changed the color of the W-1 & W-5-class minesweepers so as to show them 'in-progress'.
