This kit is aimed at enthusiasts who appreciate compact, historically accurate ship models. With careful assembly and paintwork the finished model makes a strong display piece for a collection or diorama scene.

Will this model suit a small cabinet collection?

Yes, the 1/700 scale keeps the footprint compact while still showing the carrier's unique deck profile, making it an efficient option for limited display space.

Can I add extra detail like rigging or crew figures?

Modelers often add fine rigging, small deck fittings or aftermarket figures to enhance realism. Use very thin thread and precise adhesives to maintain scale appearance.

Is specialised paint required for the hull and decks?

No special paints are required, but model acrylics and enamels formulated for plastic give the best adhesion and finish. Thin coats and masking yield crisp deck markings.
