Academy USS Enterprise CV-6 Modeler’s Edition 1/700 Scale Model Kit

Academy USS Enterprise CV-6 Modeler’s Edition 1/700 Scale Model Kit brings USS Enterprise CV-6 Modeler’s Edition to your workbench in 1/700 scale. The Enterprise carrier subject puts the emphasis on the hull, flight deck and island arrangement.

Planning the build

Lay out deck markings before adding small fittings. Check the island’s position against the deck centerline and keep the larger painted areas smooth.

Working in 1/700 scale

Use the stated scale when comparing the completed model with other subjects. For a ship, the hull length and arrangement of the decks can vary greatly between vessels in the same scale. Plan the display before assembly and use fine paint layers around smaller fittings to preserve their definition.

Kit features

• Multi-Color Parts (MCP) edition.

Painting and display

Plan the hull, deck and upperworks as a sequence of subassemblies where the instructions allow. Paint hard-to-reach areas before installing adjacent fittings. Use the kit marking guide for the intended ship and period, then check the finished assembly along its centerline before adding the last delicate details.
