About product

Wooden deck 1:700 USS Tuscaloosa CA-37 (Artwox Model)

The package holds an accessory to a ship model, not the model itself. A wooden veneer with a self-adhesive underside carries the printed laying of the deck planks and is glued straight onto the deck of a plastic kit. The result is a surface with a real wooden pattern, which cannot be replaced by painting plastic. In 1:700 scale the deck is very thin, so once it is glued on it neither raises the height of the part nor gets in the way of the superstructures.

The Trumpeter 05745 kit will serve as the base; it is bought separately.

The real subject

The USS Tuscaloosa CA-37 was an American heavy cruiser of the New Orleans class. The ships of this class had an elongated forward and after deck area, so a wooden deck covers a substantial part of the visible surface of the model.

Gluing tips

The way you take the backing film off is decisive. Never tear it off all at once, as the veneer then sticks down before you manage to align it and correcting the position is then practically impossible. Always expose only a small strip of the base at one end of the part, align the outline precisely and only then pull the film out from under the veneer gradually, pressing the area down as you go. Press with the flat side of a finger or with a smoother, not with the tip of a fingernail, so that no dents form on the surface. Push air bubbles out toward the nearest edge.

Who the deck is for

  • modelers building American cruisers in 1:700 scale
  • those who want a realistic surface of the deck without scribing and masking
  • collectors who display models in a glazed case
  • more experienced builders used to precise work with accessories

The accessory is supplied on its own. The ship kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A wooden self-adhesive deck for a ship model in 1:700 scale. The ship kit is not included and you have to have it separately.

Take the backing film off gradually in small sections and press the area down as you go, from the center toward the edges. Push any bubbles out toward the nearest edge.

The veneer is very thin, so the difference is negligible. Even so, check after gluing that the superstructures still seat as they should.

Practically not. So always lay the part on dry first, verify the outline and the cutouts and expose the film on a small piece only.

For the Trumpeter 05745 kit. That is bought separately.
