It's a "Love-Hate" thing. I love watching a video where a talented model builder works his magic to turn out an incredible model ship, just outstanding work. I envy his skill, patience and foresight to craft such a beauty. I have "attempted" to build quality models for decades and still the end results evade my best efforts. Still, it's mixed emotions seeing such a beauty...great model by a master builder...and then I go downstairs to my shop and look at my attempts.
In mir Kocht der Neid.Ich weiss nicht wie oft ich das Video schon gesehen habe.Jetzt muss ich doch mal meinen Frust darüber loswerden, das ich zwar über die Geduld, aber nicht über das können verfüge, sowas auch nur Ansatzweise zu Basteln. Mein Respekt geht an jene die es können.
Beautiful work. I never saw launching and landing at the same time except during carrier qualifications when there were few aircraft on board. I have heard it said that it could be done, but where do you put the returning aircraft to get them out of the way fast for the next to aircraft coming in when the bow is being used for launches.
Belo trabalho Jorge, o modelo ficou lindíssimo. Eu já comprei vários modelos de carro de fórmula 1, alguns aviões mas, porta aviões são a minha paixão. Atualmente não encontramos muitos para se comprar. Abraços aqui do Japão.
Looking in that hangar bay brought back so many memories. I served on her in the late 80s. Her top speed is classified, but she can move. We were coming in from workups one time, and we were racing a storm. We were probably doing 40+ knots. The storm caught up to us eventually and we had to slow down. That was crazy. The surge was so bad there was spray on the flight deck from the waves. Nothing was breaking on the flight deck, but it was pretty close. I remember walking through the hanger bay (I worked in AIMD in the island) to see if the gedunk store was open. We were in modified Yankee I believe, so I had to take the long way since there were some doors on my normal path that were dogged. The hanger bay doors were closed tight, and what freaked me out was water - a lot of water - coming in through those hanger bay doors. She took that storm like a champ though and we were soon heading into the bay on the way to Alameda.
Fantastic Job! Damn thing looks real! - um just so you know, you would very VERY rarely see F-4s with F-14s on the same deck at the same time , and certainly NOT with F-18s in the mix, and DEFINITELY NOT with super hornets on the same deck with F-4s. But still a stunning model!!! I'm envious!
I used the figures below: Larsenal - Marins resin 1/350 (Code: AC 350 25) Set of 50 pieces Larsenal - Marines at the combat post 1/350 (Code: AC 350 33) Set of 50 pieces And some Eduard figures placed inside the internal hangar. Note: The Larsenal figures do not come painted and I had to paint them in the team colors with a lot of patience. At least in my case, there were a lot of them broken and many of them broke when removing them from the sprue. In this case, buy excess quantity. Check the Aliexpress websites as I think you can find other types of figures there.
beautiful realization. I'd like to start building the kit. Did you make the insides of the hangar or are they available to buy? Where did you find the aircraft decals? Thank you
Thanks The Hangar I made myself based on photos on the internet and a good dose of imagination. The decals are from "Boatswain Model", I bought them in China (Hobbyeasy). I don't know if this brand still exists for sale.
I served on this carrier for 4 1/2 years (Feb 2003 to Sep 2007), and let me tell you. The amount of detail is insane. The most accurate model that I have seen so far. She was the Queen of the Seas. Saw and felt her doing 38+ knots at sea. It's so sad and disappointing that she got scrapped, unique in her class, and the only aircraft carrier equipped with eight nuclear reactors in the world!!!!. Thanks for posting this. You brought many memories.
Thanks for the comment. Some still criticize saying that I mixed current planes with decommissioned ones, or that I did not use the specific insignia of the Enterprise aircraft teams. First, I'm a retired steel worker, I make these miniatures to pass the time, and I didn't get into the merits of which plane was deactivated or not. Second, I wouldn't know where to get (if any) the Enterprise team-specific decals. I did it with the focus of a toy and having fun. This was my first job and just by ship I have nine more built and several others in the box. It is really a pity to dismantle this ship, even more so because it is the first one powered by nuclear energy. They could keep it as a museum like they did with Wisconsin. This one was a perfect copy because I had a lot of material to base myself on, such as photos and videos of visitors. Once again, thank you for your comments, especially coming from someone who served and knew this boat in depth. Others who have also served on it have already contacted me directly by mail and this demonstration of admiration for my work also makes me very happy. Thanks.
y'know, she's not scrapped yet. Her hulk is still sitting in Norfolk, but they've taken a lot of steel out of her for the next Enterprise. Apparently they're gonna tow her to the breakers' yard in '25.
Beautiful build. The detail is spectacular. This ship is so important, and should not have been scrapped. She should be a museum. I cried when they announced that they are destroying she. MAY HISTORY NEVER FORGOT THE NAME ENTERPRISE. When CVN 80 is finished I hope that ship will prove to be every bit as great as CVN 65. And CV 6.
My dad served on the ship in Vietnam when it was *USS Enterprise CVA(N)-65* The *"A"* was for *Attack* If he could see this, he woud lose his mind🤯 Thank you! This the best I've ever seen!
Curious how long did it take you to do this model? I had one, spent 4 years building it only to have it stolen when my home was burglarixed. Would you ever consider selling this one or building one for a fee?
@@Jorgeevandro1 A couple more questions. What figures did you use (team and technique)? Where did you get them? Do you have photos (or a diagram) of the location of the lights on the flight deck?
@@vitan3440 The figures are from L'arsenal and painted with a good dose of patience. There are also some by Eduard at the bottom of the internal hangar. As for the lighting of the Island, I used small pieces of Led tape placed so that they do not appear directly when lit, only the brightness. I haven't had a schematic for a long time.
Beautiful & straight to the point! I constructed the same model. Mine was nice but yours reaches the upper limits of precision, Great work & beautiful detail! Keep up the awesome work! Post more!
Very, very, very nice job. And a great job making the ship look alive and busy in service with the crew bringing the ship to life. Terrific airplane modeling, too. Your modeling is of the quality that inspires others. Beyond a certain point, modeling rises above making a just a realistic miniature copy, and approaches art.
Awesome work - although mixed superHornets with Tomcats, along with phantoms, corsairs, intruders, I think there is a mix of everything of different eras. If you take out the phantoms and hornets it would be more time accurate wouldn’t it?
Thanks for the compliment Larsenal (Code: AC 350 25) - Marins résine 1/350 Larsenal (Code: AC 350 33) - Marins à 1/350 combat post Eduard 53233 1/350 Aircraft Carrier Figures The vast majority were L'asernal + a good deal of patience to paint figure by figure. Also some of the other sets in specific locations, such as Eduard's (flat figures) in the background inside the Hangar.

What is the music called please great model.
Greatly done👍The airgroup is really nice. But everyone can see the age of the kit.🤔 When finally does any brand create a new tool of this famos ship?
Complimenti un lavoro eccezionale 🥇poi il sottofondo musicale di Miami Vice è il top 👍👍👍 saluti dall' Italia 🇮🇹👋👋👋

Ich habe nichts vergleichbares gesehen, perfekt ❤. Woher stammen die Figuren? Sind die Scale 1/350?
Thanks. Yes 1/350. Resin figures from L'arsenal. and some Eduard inside the Hangar.

One thing i dont like is clean models, should be weathered, so much more realistic and photographed outside in normal light

Thank n you so much h I really appreciated honest I start find in goggles. And I found in Aliexpress good ones thank you so much for u help 👍
Can you list all the Addon accessories you got for this kit? Would be much appreciated. Aswell as all the tools and paints
See Modelwarships or Hyper Scale website.

Cool music, great model!
Search for “Crockett’s Theme” by Jan Hammer. It’s the original version of what you hear in this video.
Absolutely beautiful model I have just started on mine could you please tell me which lights you used for the hanger bay. Regards dave
Excellent! Great job, and it motivates me to get stuff done!
The incredible skill and dedication it must have taken to build such a beautiful scale model is impressive. BRAVO !
Curious how long did it take you to do this model? I had one, spent 4 years building it only to have it stolen when my home was burglarixed. Would you ever consider selling this one or building one for a fee?
I spent a year buying parts and planning and another year building. I'm sorry for what happened to you, but I can't do another one.
Looks awesome. What color did you paint the flight deck?
I see F-14's, S-3's, A-7's, A-6's, EA-6B's, E-2C's. These days all you'll see, mostly, is F/A-18's. I'm guessing this is a snapshot of 1980-84-ish?
and a F-4 ! 😉
One of the coolest things I've ever seen
アメリカには資料が沢山あると思いますので、船体内部格納庫とかは作り込みが解る環境での製作は羨ましい限りですね。 一生に一度、製作してみたいですね^_^
Hull and deck color What color number are you using?
I used the same combination indicated by Tamiya's manual.
How and from what did you make the lighting?
I used 9v LED strips. The batteries are inside the plastic base of the kit being accessed under the wooden base.

That is not a "model". That is a work of art. Very impressive.👍👍👍
Hi!! Very nice!!! Where did you find these little mens?? Thanks!
I used L'arsenal (mostly) and a few Eduard, Fujiki and KA Models. You have to be patient to paint them.
