About product

USS Enterprise CV-6 aircraft carrier in 1:1200 scale from Revell

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American aircraft carrier USS Enterprise (CV-6) in 1:1200 scale from the German manufacturer Revell. The set comes in the Model Set edition: besides the parts sprues, the decals and the manufacturer's instructions, it also adds basic paints, a brush and cement for polystyrene. Mind the scale: 1:1200 is a small collector's scale, so the finished model is markedly smaller than aircraft carriers in 1:350 or 1:700.

The real subject

USS Enterprise, with the hull number CV-6, was an aircraft carrier that went through almost the whole war in the Pacific. She was nicknamed the Big E and ranks among the most decorated ships in American history. She took part in the decisive Battle of Midway and in the long fighting for Guadalcanal, was heavily damaged several times and always returned to service. Do not confuse her with the later nuclear Enterprise designated CVN-65, which is an entirely different and much larger ship.

Building and painting tips

In 1:1200 scale the parts are very small, so paint them while they are still on the sprue and cut them free only just before gluing. Set the flight deck apart from the gray superstructure with a warmer dark shade, otherwise the model will blend into a single color. The fine detail comes out after a light wash in the recesses and drybrushing on the edges. Sink the finished hull into a base representing the water surface; on a model this small, putty or plaster painted blue with lightly drawn-up ripples is enough.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of aircraft carriers in the small 1:1200 scale
  • Modelers who want everything needed for the build in one package
  • Anyone interested in the war in the Pacific
  • Buyers looking for a model that fits a small display case

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The basic paints, a brush and glue are part of the Model Set package, other accessories are not.

FAQ

1:1200, as both the box and the name of the set state. It is a small collector's scale, so the finished model is considerably smaller than aircraft carriers built in 1:350 or 1:700. If you are looking for a large model, this set is not it.

No. This set is a model of the ship with the hull number CV-6 from the war in the Pacific. The later nuclear aircraft carrier carried the designation CVN-65 and was much larger.

Yes, the Model Set edition includes them along with a brush. For a clean surface at this scale an airbrush pays off, and a wash for the detail, but neither is in the package.

Yes, there are few parts at this scale. The demanding part is not the complexity but the small size of the parts, so tweezers, a sharp knife and good light come in handy.
