I worked in the past a little bit on my model of the Yamato.
I thought it would be nice to make this battleship dirty and rusty and set it somewhere in the dessert, i hope you like it.

Epic pic, and im sorry to flame it like this, but Yamato capsized and sank in 3 pieces. the Bow section rests on its right side at a 35-40 degree angle and the stern is totally flipped over. the superstructure is shattered all over the oceanbed and the turret housings were ripped from the hull during the roll.

she didn't just capsize and sink. before going under, the powder magazines for her forward guns detonated. Hense why her super-structure is in pieces. The evidence of this is seen in the gun-camera footage taken from the aircraft that took part in the attack, as well as eye witness accounts. A sad end to a proud ship by any definition. Had the war ended sooner however, she would likely have been used in the US Navies Nuclear tests, like the Heavy Cruiser Prinz Eugen (took part in the Battle of the Denmark Strait, escorting the Bismarck) as well as many other warships. However, we may never know, as we can only guess as to what the fates of these mighty ships would be had they not been sunk...

I know all about the magazine explosion, i have guncam shots too.

I kinda hope that they would have left Yamato alone if she was afloat, would made a great memorial like the Mikasa did.

History will tell you that the Japs planned to use Yamato against Iwo Jima and it was to beach itself thereby making landings inpossible for the allies.
