Attempt #2 at a cruiser

meant to be from roughly 1940s-early 1950s
anything wrong with this/any ideas how to improve it?

That looks pretty good. :) IMO she could use some more AA if this is a 40's design. What size guns are you using?

well AA duties are usually relegated to light cruisers and such in this so-called navy

main guns are 203mm, AA's are 40mm (I believe)

Looking really good. I think the AA guns look closer to 20mm though.

secondaries/main AA are supposed to be 40mm
those machineguns aft and among the superstructure are 20mm, though

The secondary turrets? They look closer to 75mm.

Looks very good I really like the lines
I have to agree with the others on the AA
Those look like 20mm to me and more AA in general should be added

gah, the kriegsmarine part sheet says the turret I copied is 3"
well they could be either, I honestly don't remember what caliber they are and springsharp decided to be a twat and not save the report

3 inches is 76mm. I would say that is somewhat lacking in firepower. Wouldn`t dual purpose 127mm/5 inch guns be better?
