In addition to finishing the Ansaldo proposal for the Imperial Russian Navy, I also completed a more...bizarre design proposed by Lorenzo d'Adda in the early 20th century. The ship featured two turrets which had a total of 6 guns per turret, aligned at different angles. It can be inferred that this design was supposed to act as a "revolver" to allow two guns to fire, then have another two ready to go while those reloaded. These guns were 12", while its secondaries were 16 casemate 120mm guns. You can see the proposal here: https://www.delpher.nl/nl/tijdschriften ... peg21:0149 I did my best to follow the original interpretation, and decided to give her the livery of early 20th century Italian ships.

Nice work. Very interesting and very crazy idea. Btw. it would be great if You alter the caption in the upper right corner to conform to style guides: http://shipbucket.com/styleguide#61 (that applies to the 22000 battleship from the other thread too)

Updated both! I still use MSPaint, so I ran into that anti-aliasing problem. Should be fixed now.
