Painting the Big E by the book: authentic CVN-65 deck markings e06f05d
A reference diagram of USS Enterprise flight-deck markings arrived — the full numbered callout sheet, JBD warning stripes to stern nameplate — so the deck texture got repainted by the book. New on the deck: yellow/black jet-blast-deflector warning stripes behind all four catapults, elevator warning fences (the dashed offsets) and diagonal warning stripes around every elevator opening, the iconic red/white foul line segmenting the island side of the angle deck, runway boundary dashes, catapult shooters' pits, armament elevators and barrier covers, a scatter of electrical hook-up panels, and ENTERPRISE lettered across the stern. The bow "65" was re-centred between the catapult tracks where it belongs (it had drifted onto a track). Everything is placed in deck metres from the diagram, painted into the same 3px-per-metre canvas. The panels above are the raw texture — the box top face mirrors it in-world, which is why the "65" reads backwards here and correctly on the ship. Verified in the dive view on the harness: foul line, hatches and fences all read from the cockpit at retro scale.
