A great build (paper or otherwise) and a GREAt story! Love the setting and the name plate positioning (will copy that one for sure!)

Very, very nice. It's so good to see something that isn't another Bismarck or such. I also like the nameplate idea. Good thing ideas like this aren't copyrighted, it will definitely show up on some future model of mine.

Thanks for sharing! The model is really nice and I learned a good bit of history reading your article.
btw, supreme good taste when it comes to the choice of the model itself!

Simply amazing. And built out of paper! Is this a kit or scrath built? Accompanying story was interesting and gave it depth.
