With the recent popularity of 1/200 scale ships. How cool would a morden carrier be? Like , let's say Regan or Bush. Talk about a conversation piece when company stops by the house. Yes , i would have to display it somewhere other than my hobby room. Just a fun topic. Lets hear your thoughts. Happy building everyone :)
Man, a 1/200 Bush or Ford would be gigantic. I'd love to see a 1/350 Ford class but I don't know how well the 1/350 Nimitz sold - if Trumpeter didn't make a lot of money on that kit, they're less likely to put out a Ford. Then again, they ARE putting out the JFK and Kitty Hawk, so maybe there's hope yet.
I would buy an older model at that scale, in particular the HMS Ark Royal from 1940.
The challenge at such large scale is always the airwing- how much time you have, and patience, to build a couple of dozen F-14s at that scale.
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Hey " G "
I wonder where something in 1/200 could be found for the Midways . T.B.
How about a 1/350 Midway?
For me 1/200 is just too big.
But, a 1/350 USS Midway, angle deck, I would buy in a heart-beat!

I have seen a terrific 1/200 USS Saratoga (CVA-60), with the original eight 5" guns, over on the papermodelers.com website. It is huge! The builder stood the keel up against his living room door; Sara was taller. I have since bought that kit on eBay but have rescaled it to 1/350.
