This is the USS Miami CL-89 a late square bridge Cleveland class cruiser. The ship is based on the Floating Drydock plans from Thomas Walkowiak as she appeared in 1944 when painted in dazzle camo. I found a photo of her in early 1945 in the Ms-22 camo and painted her in that measure with the 1944 armament. The ship is completely scratchbuit with the exception of some L'Arsenal fittings that were used.
