Specifications

  • Scale: 1/800
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Parts: Detailed components for accurate assembly
Basic to intermediate modelling skills are recommended. You should be comfortable with cutting parts from sprues, filing seams and using model glue and paints for the best finish.
Acrylic or enamel model paints are suitable; prime the plastic first and use thin coats for smooth coverage. Deck grey and naval hull tones match the real carrier appearance.
Mount it on a low-profile stand or in a dedicated display case to protect delicate parts and keep dust off. Grouping with other 1/800 ships creates an attractive naval diorama.
