USS BROOKLYN (ACR-3) - 1:200 model

[Dion Dunn]

Magnificent! Models like this have inspired me to dive deeper into card models and away from large 1/4 scale RC subjects. Thank you for this build log!

Hello to all paper modelers !!!

The model of USS Brooklyn has finally completed, included her transparent case (with a little of glue drops visible at the angles, but it's ok for me ... ;-) )

Now she is ready to be officially presented in some model shows here in Italy

Hoping that such ship, as example of what can be achieved by the use of paper, could bring some other modeler to start something using paper (here in Italy is not so used in model world, like in other countries...)

Hoping you'll like the final effect, i wish you all an happy paper modeling !!!!

ciao

Ha great thanks for all your kind words

Stunning model, JP! These old cruisers were beautiful ships, and your model is a fine tribute to them.

Great work. Good thing you have a case around it, otherwise my nose would keep bumping into the model from getting too close trying to see everything.
