Yeah I kinda see that. I sorta imagined her looking like if the USS North Carolina and Richelieu had a baby, but they where extremely abusive towards the baby and pumped her with steroids lol. Another idea I had had of her and other Confederate battleships is they perhaps would resemble Japanese battleships like the towers of the battleships would look like Janga towers because they would have to cramp a bunch of random shit on them because of treaty restrictions. So I could see come post First Great War naval treaties would restrict the size of new Confederate battleships. Or the CSA would just flat out lie to the United States about her weight saying something like, she is 35,000 tons but in reality she's like 45-50 thousand tons, and they would also keep the true gun size a secret just like how Japan did with the Yamatos irl.
One of the reasons why I think she would perhaps sort of look like a Richelieu is because the CSA's allies would help them build a class of battleships, using parts and designs of the allies so they could slip threw the cracks in the treaty restrictions.
