Doesn’t Paul at PSShips/Sirmar make a fairly large HMS Hermes hull which is the same class and could be modified to suit I guess ??

They sell a 1/96th scale Hermes complete with the Ski-ramp ( modelled on her appearance during the 1982 Falklands war I think ) but most of her hull details were basically unchanged from her time as a helicopter carrier and would need limited reworking to get back to the appearance of her sisters during their commissions as either light fleet fixed wing or helicopter assault carriers

The major work would be removing the flight deck extension port side midships as neither Albion nor Bulwark had the fully angled deck being converted into amphibious assault ships.
