Unfortunately not - but you can see them on many original pictures.

"Wow!" was the first that came to my mind, too! I couldn“t do this in 1/350, let alone in 1/700... Very clean and precise work, remarkable!

LOL. Yep, these fiddly parts are really challenging. From time to time I need something bigger scaled, like flowers in 1/35 for example. ;)

Very nice work. I built one 1/700 carrier, once...
No caffeine, no alcohol, and an Optivisor.

I frankly did not enjoy the experience. and took it apart several times.

The planes were included in the kit, but not the PE - these are from Eduard (99044 IJN Carrier Aircraft).

When the markings painting is the parts double,
the modeler surely will be in trouble.
