About product

USS Montana in 1:350 scale, the DX form

The kit from Very Fire treats the American battleship of the Montana class in 1:350 scale and is offered in the version marked DX, that is in a premium form beyond the basic release. In this scale it is a large project for several dozen hours of work. Check the contents of the premium package against the details on the box.

The real subject

The Montana class was the last American design of a classic battleship. Against the preceding Iowa class it was to carry a stronger main armament in four gun turrets and to have a markedly greater beam, because the design was no longer bound by the dimensions of the canal. The speed, by contrast, was to be reduced in favor of the armor. Construction was canceled in 1943 in favor of aircraft carriers, so no ship of the class was completed. The model therefore depicts a projected state, not an existing vessel, and that is precisely why it is popular among collectors.

Building and painting tips

Start with the hull: its shape and the trueness of the deck determine the whole rest of the build, so rather leave one half of the joint under pressure overnight. Fit the deck equipment, the railings and the fine parts only once the basic areas are painted, otherwise you will necessarily damage them while masking. It proves itself to build in sections, that is the bow, the superstructures and the stern separately, and to join them only once they are finished. Do the painting with an airbrush, as the camouflage schemes of American ships work with sharp boundaries between the shades, which call for masking. At the end reckon with a stand or a display case, as a model of this size has no business on an open shelf.

Who the model is for

  • experienced builders of ship models in 1:350 scale
  • collectors who want the premium version instead of the basic release
  • anyone interested in American battleships and in unrealized designs
  • modelers with room for a large finished model and with time for a long build

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is a premium form beyond the basic release of the kit. Check the make-up of the package against the details on the box.

She was not completed. Construction of the class was canceled in 1943 in favor of aircraft carriers, so the model depicts a projected state.

Rather not. A large ship model in 1:350 scale means hundreds of parts, work with fine components and long painting. Without experience from smaller models it is a demanding start.

Glue, paints, an airbrush and masking material are not included in the package. With a model of this size, reckon with a display case or a stand as well.
