TAMIYA TAM31712 1/700 US Aircraft Carrier Yorktown Plastic Model Kit

good model

First: this model requires paint and glue. It is not a toy and is for plastic modelers. The model comes with a very nice painting guide and very accurately molded plastic. I also purchased the Tamiya paints and extra thin cement and a set of sprue cutters: would recommend these to make building the model far easier. There is very little flash to remove and the parts fit together well for the most part. This is part of the waterline series meaning it does not come with propellers, keel and rudder details etc. and looks as if would if it were on the ocean but I prefer this for shelf displays. It has a healthy fleet of planes(3 different fighters/bombers) and a lot of excellent detail. The painting is fairly straight forward, no complicated camouflage patterns(unlike the USS Hornet). That being said, it is a challenging model and I would not recommend for a beginner but it is an excellent choice for an intermediate or advanced modeller and the painting is easier than some carriers. As for Best Services: a mediocre vendor at best. They missed the projected ship date by a week, did not update the shipping status for weeks(the invoice was printed out the day I ordered it), and customer service was curt. If it's the best price and time isn't an issue they are still below average.

Man sollte viel Geduld mitbringen und eine leistungsfähige Tischlupe. Viel kann mit Airbrush erledigt weren. Die Flugzeuge auf dem Deck müssen aber alle angefasst werden, wenn es gut aussehen soll. Der Hammer sind die Mikrodecals für die Flieger. Nix für Menschen mit ADHS.

Está bien, pero sólo para adultos, tiene piezas ridiculamente pequeñas para montar. Es laborioso, y nunca queda tan bien como en las fotos del anuncio, ya que el pintado no es fácil. Cuando lo compré estaba por alo menos de 15 €, por ese precio, bastante bien.

Något mindre än jag trodde, men sonen var ändå väldigt nöjd. Pilligt och trevligt, hög kvalitet. Tack för snabb leverans.
