USS Arizona info needed...

I’ve just purchased the Revell of Germany 1/720 kit… What can I say about it?.. Oh, yeah, A LITTLE DISASTER… lots of flash, badly injected pieces and very bad fit… but I think that after a little work, it should look good… so I need a lot of info, like plans, and even some photos of larger scale USS Arizona’s kits… Thanks in advance. regard.

That’s what I’ve been looking for… Thank you very much!..

no problem, teach & learn

drop me an email. i am building a 3d model of arizona (and will start woeking on trumpeter 1/350 w/ pe shortly) and have plans, photos, models, books, etc. did you know they just discovered the top of nos. 1, 2, 4 gunturrets were painted red at pearl harbor. the forward colors were for the ship id and the aft color was for the float plane squadron id. once i get some experience back with ship models may try to do a 10dec41 arizona using the revel 1/426 model.

If you’re looking for a great reference book on the Arizona, try Stillwell’s Battleship Arizona. You can get it here: http://www.amazon.com/Battleship-Arizona-Illustrated-Paul-Stillwell/dp/0870210238
