Got general idea couple years back. Yeah but am doing 1/72 as finished builds which includes several scaleoramas. Then Brian posts drawing of CHV-1 USS Admiral Perry within Republic F1R-4-7 topic. Note how nicely B-17 fits on elevator. Thatz it, am now hooked and blame it on Brian. So here goes a big styrene reach.
Core kit is 1/350 Merit CV-67 USS John F Kennedy. To be finished as 1/700 mega-carrier. USN '46ish step beyond Midway class. Tidy 2104 ft long if don't mess with length mods.
First step is attempt to cut hull to become a water line model. IF SUCCESSFUL will be displayable (on blue plywood or ?) with other 1/700 waterline OOB and scaleorama ships. If not successful, figure out a plan "B".
All ship accoutrements will be 1/700 or scale okay to be 1/700 for their application. Island, deck edge walks, AA guns, aircraft, motor launches, etc... as 1/700. Plenty 1/700 kits available as parts donors.
As of now - no gluing or plastic cut. Top of green tape in picture is tentative line for hull cutting.
