CB-2 USS Guam 1:200 (Fly Model 109, USS Alaska)
Hi all
This is my first paper-model ship. My favourite era of warship is the second ww era, mainly the ships of USN, therefore I started to build my favourite Large-Cruiser USS Guam. The model originally the USS Alaska, but I like the Guam's measure 32/7c paint scheme much better.

Some pictures about the building method. Sorry for the quality of the pictures
