Wanna build the Big "E"

hey there

i Am in the works building it currently, i just finished the hull and so far it is a fairly easy kit everything seem to fit fine for me . I'm mostly a car guy my self ,but i like to dweal into of the areas as well. you willl find that it is an enjoyable kit to build from the box

I built it a long time ago when I was in college.  I thought it was a great kit and very enjoyable one to build.  I think you will enjoy it.

 Modelbuilder,i'm currently finishing it up and i found it to be a pretty good fit all around,but somethings with the kit aren't correct with the actual ship,once you get started doing research pics you'll see what i'm talking about.if you want to dress it up gold medal models makes some real good aftermarket for her,and decals.if you have any problem their customer care is outstanding.but if you need any help just send me email and i'll do what i can.

Copdre,that goes for you to don't hesitate to ask anything i'll try my best and what i can't help with the rest of the people here give excellent advice

I have not built that exact kit, but have looked at one in the box. As a Tamiya, it'll build up into a nice-looking model straight out of the box ... but adding an aftermarket PE set, say from Gold Medal Models, will definitely increase the "wow" factor.

Hi:  I built the 1/700 scale Tamiya Enterprise and I found it to be a good kit, but I think that Trumpeter and Dragon 1/700 carriers are better and more detailed.  The Tamiya island is a little thin and the AA guns could use more detailing.  Adding PE parts will add to the look, and adding some more aircraft also makes it look better.  Lenny 

i would like to build a "big e" model too. doesn't trumpeter have one in 1/350?
