1/350 CV-6 USS Enterprise 1942 Late Version
P.E : Infini CV-6 Enterprise 1942 late Detail up set & Blue color Wooden Deck
Figure : NorthstarModels USN Figures in working position 1~2, Boxing Tournament in USN Ship WWII
It took six months from July to complete.
The Infini’s products were fantastic. But I made some mistakes and that leaves me frustrated.
Last shot is my Joke….
And….I made one really really terrible mistake. It can be seen if you look carefully. I’m too ashamed to say it myself.

OK….I give up – where’s that “terrible mistake” you can’t tell us about?
I can’t find any ‘mistakes’ in ANY of your builds. 🙁

I forgot to make something very important. There is no ship without this. But it doesn’t exist this ship.
Hongseob CHOI said on January 10, 2018
I agree with Craig, that’s not A mistake. this one looks like ship. really nice ship. that’s all
Jeff Bailey said on January 10, 2018
I’m with Craig … I see NO mistakes. And I love the last shot with the humor!
Another superb build, Won-hui Lee!
Jeff Bailey said on January 10, 2018
Hmmm. A Rudder, perhaps? No matter. It can be added, I assume.
Josh Patterson said on January 10, 2018
Yeah. He knew he forgot it and it seemed like a challenge, so I took it on! (Me not knowing ships very well, it would have to have been obvious and he was right. There’s no choice of destination with out a rudder!)
Stellan Schroeder Englund said on January 10, 2018
Nice one. Yep, rudders would be great to have on a ship.
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
hahaha….Please keep this secret.
David Mills said on January 10, 2018
Anchors away ?
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
I lost my anchor and rudder. It’s a secret. Ha ha ha.
Greg Kittinger said on January 10, 2018
Another beautiful model. Very nice color modulation on the hull and deck. All that work on the figures and small aircraft is spot-on as well.
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Thank you very much. Soon I will add anchor and rudder. ^^;;;
Josh Patterson said on January 10, 2018
I got to thinking and I think it would be a fun group build to make something but leave an item out and have others find it!
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
I’ll have to try it from now on. That sounds really interesting.
Josh Patterson said on January 10, 2018
And I love the Phantom! Reminds me of The Final Countdown!
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Final Countdown!! I like the movie very much.
Robert Royes said on January 10, 2018
Steer by the engines. Fantastic build!
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Thank you very much. ^^

There is one mistake (which is presented to assist in the future): you have different iterations of insignia applied together incorrectly. A small glitch, but with everything else to such a high level of excellence, it stands out. Fortunately, if you google “evolution of US national insignia in World War 2” you will find numerous tutorials that will help in the future.
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Thank you for your good advice. I made many mistakes when I used anything due to lack of decal.
Derek Austin said on January 10, 2018
I noticed the anchors but not the rudder! But hey, it’s a beautifully made, painted, weathered and staged model with or without and I suspect that every man jack of us would love to be able to match your skill! Oh, and the photography ain’t half bad either. So it’s a resounding very ell done from me!
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Thank you very much. The rudder was broken while moving for a photograph. And the anchor forgot to make it. But it’s a secret. Ha ha ha ha. I will correct these mistakes and take a picture again.
David A. Thomas said on January 10, 2018
Again, amazing. And if Won-hui can leave off the rudder there’s hope for mortals like me!
Won-hui Lee said on January 10, 2018
Thank you very much. ^^ I found the rudder yesterday. I’ll have it repaired soon.
George Williams said on January 10, 2018
It’s always the mistakes that I don’t know about that worry me. This is a great piece of work that I’ve really enjoyed looking at.
Dirk Derks said on January 11, 2018
Hello Won- hui Lee,
Even without the rudder, still a master modeler achievement. I will have to look this over for several times, to get all the details.
Great build. Regards, Dirk / The Netherlands.
Tom Bebout said on January 11, 2018
Nice build even without a rudder.
Rick Wilkes said on January 11, 2018
Another beautiful ship. I wouldn’t call leaving the rudder off, merely an oversight that is easily corrected.
I do have one question about the Air Group. You said the time frame is late 1942, which means the TBD torpedo bombers would have been replaced with TBF Avengers. If I’ve misinterpreted the time frame you have presented I apologize.
Regardless she’s still one of the best WW2 carrier models I have seen. I would be a great display at the US Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola Florida.
Anthony Alvear said on January 11, 2018
a really fantastic model, excellent details and termination … greetings and congratulations
Rob Pollock said on January 12, 2018
Very nice work.
Richard Mcstay said on January 13, 2018
I think we are all our biggest critics! Stunning job. The effect on the hull looks like you are looking up at the ship from underneath the water.
Michel Verschuere said on January 14, 2018
Beautiful, these figures really bring it to life and this in scale 1/25!!! Stunning, well done!
Michel Verschuere said on January 14, 2018
sorry typo scale 1/350 of course
G. Ley said on January 14, 2018
A superb depiction of a WWII carrier. This is a miniature diorama on a ship model! What makes the scene is the boxing match on deck. I would surmise this is a first for ship modelers. Talk about “little people” for those who paint figures, these boggle the mind. Every time I think I am reaching the limits of miniature detailing, I find detailing like this. I hit a wall at 1/144th.

Absolutely superb
