New from Eduard - WWII US Navy Carrier Deck Base

Eduard is bringing out a product that should be very welcome to us WWII USN aviation modelers: a carrier deck base in styrene and 1/48 scale:

I think there have been resin bases occasionally, and printed decks. And back in the day, there were some makers who made the toughest detail to replicate-the tie-down strips. Those are long since unavailable. This is a godsend for us and our 1/48 scale Navy planes.

It’s labeled as the deck of an Essex-class carrier, but I think it will work for the Yorktowns, too. Not for the Lexingtons, though; their decks had a different pattern to its planking.

I can hardly wait to get a couple of these!

Best regards,
Brad
