Thx, I will definitely continue work from here and use variety of materials for more realistic look. Water is planned as well. This was my first stab into this kind of large scale paper construction, my scales are mostly 1/700 and 1/3000, if anyone likes that stuff here is some of my tiny work: (Spreading interest in ironclad age is my great agenda . )

Hi to everyone. This is Henri IV, French coastal battleship from the golden age of ironclads. Everything was drawn, measured and painted by hand (and car spray) except flags and deck planking (heavily Photoshoped photo of ordinary wood floor). Unfortunately I had no time to add more details. And rear super firing turret is atrocious, I'm so ashamed how it came out. EDIT: Just to cover myself regarding "only paper allowed" rule, this is wip photo of hull interior. Nothing but cardboard over which I glued ordinary paper to cover gaps.
