The design has a main battery of 2 turrets, and by the standard of WWII, when battleships were at their peak, it is a very weak design. My cat, Skot, is present in one of the pictures. I know the color is messy, but my Legos are so mixed that I cannot hope to fix the colorful problem. Also present in this post is a screen shot from the shellmap for quick comparison of my model versus the in-game ZH battleship

Looks pretty good, despite the rainbow of colors present. You could also try designing it a bit better in Lego Digital Designer if you have it, and then you can buy your custom set directly from Lego if you stay within a certain set of bricks.

The model itself looks very good, you replicated the details of the radar dish and the turrets nicely.

As a big LEGO fan myself (or at least a former one - I rarely tinker with it these days, though I still enjoy it occasionally) that's a really impressive job. The only suggestions I'd have would be to try and replicate a bit of the detailing on the decks (such as grilles, more pronounced funnels, that sort of thing) in order to maximise visual interest, and while it doesn't look fantastic in technicolour, believe me when I say I've been there myself and know exactly why anything else is pretty much impossible (colour matching always used to be a bonus rather than a goal).
