IJN Tenryuu - Kancolle

IJN Tenryuu "天龍 - てんりゅう" 
Kancolle ver. of Imperial Japanese Navy Light Cruiser Tenryuu. 
Commissioned on Nov. 20th 1919, she was designed to act as flagship for destroyer fleets. She took part in a well known battle "Battle of Savo Island" which is now currently known as "Savo Sound" aka "Iron Bottom Sound" during the battle she was attacked by patrol torpedos but escaped without damage. Her fate was sealed on January 20, 1943, Submarine USS Albacore fired 3 torpedos at Light Cruiser IJN Tenryuu, all but one hit her in the stern and thus she sank. 23 crewmen were lost but the rest of the survivors including the captain were rescued.

Commissioned piece for Tony N. Who wanted Tenryuu in the same style as my Iowa piece.
