1/250 SMS Tegetthoff (GPM)
Most of us think that facing an Austrian Battleship is as likely as facing a Swiss aircraft carrier. But at the turn of the 19th century Austria hat access to the adriatic sea and a big navy. The Tegetthoff was one of four modern Dreadnoughts the "Viribus Unitis Class". As the ships stayed fenced in the in the adriatic sea, they had no real chance to show their ability. The model is shown in the painting and state before WW I. This is a model made from cardboard, you may find the construction report here.
