Could use a kit recommendation for a 'new to paper' modeller

Greetings;

Technically this is more of a 'hello' thread, but figured since it's ship specific I'd post it over here. I'm a long time plastic and resin modeller, mostly planes and tanks, but the occasional ship. The paper bug has always been nagging at me, and I decided to finally actually build something.

I'm currently working through the Digital Navy minesweeper, which is proving more fun than a little bitty minesweeper really should be, but I'm also not taking it too serious either. Mainly just getting used to the new medium. I'm not going too crazy trying to make it perfect. I'd love to step up to something a bit larger and make a more serious attempt at a build.

Any kit suggestions? I'd prefer a US or RN subject, from the pre-dreadnought era up through inter-war/early WWII. Perhaps something Russian as they had some really unique ships in that time period. More concerned with ease of build than anything else, and I don't know which designers are more build friendly than others. I'd like to keep things 'fun' since I'm still new to paper. I'll handle a masochistic build a few kits down the road.
