Here is an other one personal design,
the Light Cruiser RHNS Nikiforos Fokas of 1936 and followed up from her sistership
RHNS Megas Alexandros on 1937.

Any corrections-sugestions are welcome!

Really nice looking ones for own desing. Balanced lookin and seems to capture the essentials of treaty cruisers. Imagine these are 3 triple 6 inch guns?

Very nice, but I think you should work in one additional funnel, alternatively widening the existing one. As it is now, I don't think she can produce the forced draught needed for high speeds. Now, have you looked at my thread with Hellenic cruisers also? Would that be something that interests you?

Nice, but I agree with Bezo that you'll need a second funnel.

Ok i will try to add a second funnel...but i have to enlarge the hull a little bit.
I'll try a second version with a single enlarged funnel!

Very nice work...I especially like the sloping lines of the main turrets.

The Greeks get really nice cruisers on the forums don't they? All of the AU/Personal Designs that I've seen are amazing, and this is no exception.
