Warship Builder Lexington – Meng

Read Time:35 Second

2018-07-07 17.00.42Meng Models has put out a "Warship Builder" line of kits, starting with USS Lexington (CV-2).  It's a ridiculously detailed kit for a toy, and just adorable, as Parker likes to say.  The lower hull is detachable.

2018-07-07 17.02.09The kit is shown in early WW II camouflage, like I'm going to do that. I went with my usual prewar colors, Standard Navy Gray overall with Gunship Gray decks and mahogany flight deck stain with Chrome Yellow markings.  2018-07-07 17.01.27

The air group of TBDs, SBDs and a F4F (I didn't feel like building both) are in matching colors, making for a very colorful (as well as adorable) Lady Lex.
