16 years Navy Veteran here,, I been on Aircraft Carriers, LHAs, and a Oilier... Great collection, you are right the collection is very dead on as accuracy goes. Great building. It brought back a lot of memories. thank you..for sharing
This is a very impressive collection, and I can't imagine the insane effort and passion put into these babies...Very beautiful indeed!
Wow, thank you!
That’s cool
Incredible detail... I guess the QE class is next on the list?
Ya
I am also making a paper aircraft carrier uss nimitz
From a veteran who has served on CVN-65 USS Enterprise I think you have done a good job in building her. BZ to you.
Fantastic to hear, thank you
i was on 65 from 2000-2004
I have a little story about CVN-65 from when I in the Naval Communication Unit on Midway Island 1966-1968. A big purpose of our unit was to relay message traffic. The Enterprise was passing fairly close once and Midway radioed them asking if they would like us to help handle some of their message traffic. They responded, "We don't think you could handle our level of traffic." Sort of good natured snub, and probably partially true. We had many transmitters, and many Technical Materiel Corporation 10KW transmitters, but they had some Technical Materiel Corporation 40KW versions.
How do you feel about your CVN-65 sad fate
@@JJModelMaking hey I’m curious where did you buy your models as I’m just getting into the hobby I got a model Arizona at a michaels dealership n Saskatchewan however they are only in the cities and we don’t make city trips that often so I’m curious wheee you got yours
Just ordered the USS Constellation kit by Trumpeter. Cannot wait to start it as the ship is near and dear to my heart having served aboard her in the late 80s
It’s cool seeing this. My dad served from 90-07 in the NAVY and he was stationed on the USS Enterprise before. He ended up working at the shipyard after getting out the service and he’s told me countless stories of working on many decommissioned aircraft carriers that he and some of his colleagues have served on. He said it hits hard seeing the ships they once lived on for weeks to months at a time so consistently end up not being functional anymore and just being broken down for parts. Love the video btw. Keep it up 👌🏿💯
WHERE DID U GET THE WASP MODEL, my grandpa served on the wasp, I still have his hat, it would mean the world to me if u can give me the info where u found the wasp
I found it on eBay
he wouldn't have served on this Wasp , but the WW2 carrier . My Dad served on her for a time , he was in the Royal Navy , Fleet Air Arm .
That’s the sickest set I laid my eyes on
Look up the set the Naval aviation museum has, its even larger and more amazing, recomend if you ever go into pensacola too stop by their museum and look at them they have some 20 models over 6 ft long and highly detailed
Xavier C Selby ok
True story
My brother was on the Enterprise
He was an S-3 Viking computer guy.
And he was in port at Fremantle AU.
My ship was USS Tripoli
USMC. Machinegunner
We were ordered to drop anchor about 1 mile
Outside of Fremantle. They didn’t want two
Military ships in at same time.
I walked up to my 1st Sgt and said
“My brother is on the Enterprise
can I go visit him ?”
1st Sgt said
“What the F do I look like, a tour guide ?”
LoL.
Him Bike lol
Leo Gallegos moral of the story.
Never ever join the Marines !!!!!
Huh?
George Bobb didn’t ask it’s still funny nigga!
@George Bobb there is actually.....
I was in Navigation on the bridge. Our Captain was a Vietnam POW. A great person to serve with.
I'm happy to say that my father and I have made that \same exact carrier, CVN-65< over the years has he worked on it (in the 94-98) as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) and its fun to see that someone else has made an exact copy of the ship. I've been on it myself before it was scuttled and it is amazing how well you done with it, impressive indeed.
Thank you both very much for taking the time to write this, wonderful to hear. So happy you both thought it was up to scratch
Love the respect for different eras especially the Crusaders on big E.
Thank you for such a lovely trip down "Memory Lane". The Enterprise was one of my very first models as a young boy, and this gave me such nostalgic vibes. Brilliant craftmanship, sir.
They look great, love the Illustrious in the sea setting.
The Essex is my favourite. 👍
I was very fond of the Corsair II when I was a kid.
I have never built a ship. Not a project for my skill level!
But I do have a couple of huge planes on order including a 1/18 Harrier!
I spent 2 years 7 mos 13 days on USS Fortrestal CVA 59. I was there for the big fire in Vietnam "G Div." and Aircrew on Grumman C1A #146052 in the med. I have no idea how many Cat shots and arrested landings. Once went off the angle deck with out a Cat. The plane was fully loaded and we went down 1/2 way to the water. Once we took some boiler repair supplies to USS Independence so one time on and off her.
Thansk for sharing. Ive always been into modeling since i was little. Now at 40+ I have income, tools and workign on more time for modeling. haha. these videos are a good source of inspiration for me.
Seeing the Big E is pretty cool! If you get a chance, you can see it at Newport News Shipyard before it gets torn down completely! It was awesome doing some work on the new JFK while looking down onto the E. Great work bro!!!
That USS Intrepid looks amazing, especially with that deck surface
Very nice collection. Thanks for sharing.👌👌👌
This is great, thanks for going through and giving some history on each
I there I was thinking my Big Truck models were great! :-) Great collection of aircraft carriers. Congrats! From the USA.
So freaking cool! Great work!
Congratulations, such a wonderful collection.
Thnx for sharing. Nice work!
The Intrepid looks really nice, hope mine turns out well. Started mine about three months ago. Been in the market for a book about her, and/or maybe a few of her sisters, as I'm still undecided about aircraft. Have a WW2 era Essex that I'd like to turn into a Korean era ship, and the Enterprise similar to yours still in the box. Have a USS New York and a USS Kennedy coming.
Well I Have The Figure Of World War 2 USS Enterprise, But The Figure Is Not The Carrier But a Anime Girl.
Ah yes, a man of culture
@@davudlastname2545 Kantai Collection doesn't have a CV-6 Enterprise. It's extremely likely going to be AL.
Enty❤️
It must take much efforts to realize these amazing collections.
It'd be cool if you got an Akagi or a Kaga.
Awesome collection!Great job!
Nice work. I built models when I was young, and have a pretty good idea just how much work you've put into it. Well done sir.
Thanks Richard!
Your Intrepid looks better than the model they have at the actual Intrepid in NYC, which is now a museum. If I recall correctly, they capture the different eras in which the Intrepid served (I haven't been there in a while!).
Wow, thank you! I went in 1986 or something but can't remember the details
On the wasp nice to have V 22 osprey 👍
Wonderful models thanks for sharing
That was a very impressive collection! I too am fond of such models, the scale at which these are made is perfect with clarity of details both with respect to the ship size and aircraft
I do HO model railroading and decided to add aircraft to my layout eventually deciding to purchase some carriers. My first purchase was in 1998 when i purchased a 1/400 USS Enterprise by LEE that came with a motor. Then i got a 1/400 Enterprise by Revell in 2001. THEN i got a 1/350 CVN 68 Nimitz made by Trumpeter that i purchased in Japan. Not seeing the time to put them together, i started looking for diecast carriers and opted to buy a few of the GI Joe Saratoga carriers by Hasbro. Now i have two of those and ended up selling my LEE and Revell carriers some years ago on ebay. I still kept CVN 68 for the effort i put in to mail it and just can't find something like that normally.
Those are all spectacular! I love seeing the finished and unfinished ones together. It shows your dedication and attention to some incredible details! Keep us posted on the progress of your in work projects! Beautiful collection!
Totally impressed !
I worked on the last overhaul/refueling of Enterprise at Newport News Shipbuilding in the early 90s as an apprentice welder. Breaks my heart to see it tied up awaiting an unknown fate, so I know how you feel about Illustrious.
Wonderful!
I have three carriers but you have more firepower. Hugs.
I was stationed aboard the USS America, CV-66. So I know that you put in a LOT of time and detail in putting these together.
I met a navy veteran last month in Charleston, SC when I visited the Yorktown at Patriots Point. He told me he had cruised on the America, and he loved his service on board. Could tell he was proud to have been a crewman.
I haven't built a model since I was a kid but I got an impressive deal on a 1:350 Bismarck which just shipped. I'm on pins and needles waiting for it to arrive and going through different paint design ideas in my head. Been thinking of adding some gold leaf to it
Fantastic!
I just got back into modeling too (it's been about 55 years). I would suggest that you "warm up" with a easier kit. Try to build a PT 109 as an example. Just a suggestion as I am now on my third model and I can see both knowledge and skills improving. Good Luck.
I can see he's not bored during quarantine
Great models with superb detail and so much that looks just right. This is not meant to be nitpicking, but from a constructive point of view, on an Invincible class carrier at Flying Stations, the Harriers are generally arranged around the fantail and the helos are generally parked either below decks, alongside the island, or in the Graveyard (0 spot area) unless they are being prepared for launch or recovery. BUT, it's absolutely your model and is still a superb piece, either way. 👌
my grand father was a shooter officer from the flight deck on USS enterprise!!
Enterprise was a good boat... did two 5 year tours on it as a nuclear operator. Complex as hell, but almost impossible to stop.
Wow, that´s REALLY impressive. I build some carriers about a decade ago, but like most people in 1/720 scale, so nothing special. The Enterprise and Nimitz, too, an Wasp class and two Russian carriers, one of the older ones with Yak-38 and Kamov copters, I think the Kiev, and the Admiral Kutsnetsov with MiG and Su-fighters on it. They are all waterline models, but forgotten in the showcase and a little dusty over the years, sadly :-(
I like how you did the helicopters flying. You should set one of them up hovering and dropping supplies off. Maybe some black string with a crate. Or maybe even get your hands on the tiny people models and set them on the carrier decks. Any how, good job mate!
I love them and thank you for sharing.
That’s a nice collection mate
Very impressive.
I was on the Carl Vinson (cvn70) from 2013-2016. These are impeccable
Hey J.J. I was on the U.S.S Guam. It's in the same class as the wasp carrier that you have there. I was in the U.S Marine Corps. And I got the opportunity to serve next to the British Royal Marines. Had a lot of fun. I hope you will do more videos. I really like the way you did those ships. Take care
The enterprise if favorite. Love the flying helicopters. All look great. Thanks for sharing James.
Thanks Charlie! The Enterprise will always mean a lot to me!
Very nice indeed.
JJ's hobbies: Make aircraft carrier models.
My Hobbies: Watching JJ's videos on making aircraft carrier models.
I am impressed by the USS Intrepid, you definitely took great care with constructing that model. I have the Tamiya USS Enterprise quarter assembled, and it has been that way for 15 years, the sametime I have been with my now wife.....we just do not have room for assembling and displaying it.
Thanks, very kind of you to say. I thoroughly enjoyed building both ships. It was a bit of a race finishing the Enterprise while my wife was pregnant with our daughter
Those are beautiful! Way to go!
I love them all...but the Intrepid (to me) was SOO impressive. The detail!
Great Work!!
Very impressive work I wish I could get into doing this stuff I just don't have the patience good job though
During these Covid Holidays I am busy creating a simple Model of an Aircraft Carrier.Bcz I simply love them-i love both ships&planes.That means it's a 2-in-one! But it's a tedious job.But I will complete it.Good luck to me! This video inspired me further.Thank u for this nice video.
That's why I wanted to share it, best of luck!
Good luck for you
Those are the kind of toys I wish I had when I was 6.
Nice. Thank you.
You are awesome you do great work.
Thanks Bruce!
OMG! This is a US NAVY Aircraft Carrier Size Modelling indeed! Thank You So Much for the Efforts & for Sharing! Stay Safe & World Peace! 🌍🌷🕊
Cool!
M Dad was the lead Engineer on the F-8 and A-7 at Vought. He was a combat naval officer in WW II in the PEcific, and then worked 50 years for Vought. I worked there for several years myself in the late 1970s and got to work on the A-7 while there as well as other things. Great video!
Awesome job sir, I was on the constellation, ranger & the Carl Vinson working on the flight deck on the catapults as a troubleshooter, great detail.
Lol I'm just here for the intro song, amazing ships tho.
Wonderful collection! Greeting from Vietnam, I am going to open a Coffee shop to display US Navy ships, now I have 3 ships, hope that one day I will have more 10 ships to grand opening :)
Fantastic job building those Goliath’s! I’d actually love to see an ever closer view if your camera can do it and you ever feel like it. And I doubt I’m the only one. Great video! Take care :)
I’ve built loads of models over the years but only two carriers, HMS Victorious and USS Saratoga ⛴✈️🏎🚙
I also build the USS Saratoga when i was a teenager in the 70s80s, and a smaller version of the USS Forestal. I believe I still have the Saratoga somewhere.
I'd rather have the converted cruiser Lexington. The largest and the fastest .
Awesome however the F-35s embarked on the Wasp class are F-35Bs which do not feature folding wings
Slim pickings on ebay
I started building again. Last time was in 2012, two years before my son was born. Now he's 6 and is interested in my Revell, Tamiya, Trumpeter models. The problem is that they break when he plays with them. When I was a kid I used to play with GI Joe. Is there anyone who can tell me if there is today something similar that is just realistic as the building kids but more robust like the gi joe vehicles?
Thank you.
PS: nice collection you have.
Lovely. Need to add our latest which I’m sure you will.
Great collection of Carriers, James! That's serious dedication to the hobby and real motivation for those of us still cutting our teeth, so to speak.
Yes very true, I was thinking about trying my hand at doing a carrier, After seeing this lot, my mind is made up.👍🏴♥️🇺🇸🏴♥️🇺🇸
I would love to see somebody make these five times bigger and now launch an RC plane off of it. Now that would be impressive
Carm N
Search the internet Seen one somewhere about 16-17 foot long with plane that takes off. Far as i remember it was some American large scale model making club.
I was in the Navy for five years. I had to go to the USS Reagan for a meeting, and I was blown away at just how massive it was. 80 feet from the flight deck to the water, 5 1/2 acre flight deck, and over 5500 crew members. It's a sight to behold.
That's awesome, but the room you need to have toys that big hahaha, wife would kill me :D
Check out the scratch build one on my channel. It's never complete. Sigh.. a USS Arizona is the base 😬🥴😁. Great job, JJ.
Amazing! The detail is incredible, and so well built. you are a superb craftsman my friend.
Please can you stop making a similar nice videos like this one. I week ago i had no clue or though about models till i sow your video by coincidence and now I endup by buying 4 kits one : revell entreprise 1/400 which i found is not same like yours so i had to buy another one tamiya 1/350 CVN-65 than i found a deal for U190 1/72 so I bought it and today bought triptiz 1/350 . I spend a fortune and now i have to buy airbrush and some colours and glue to build them from no experience. Be ready if i don't make them as nice as yours i will send you the bill
Just wonderfully crafted pieces of art. My passion is wooden ship building.
FYI that's the wrong version of the F35, the one you show is a C model they only fly off the big deck carrier's you can tell cause they are the only version with folding wings, the B model is the one you need they fly off the LHD they are the stovl ones
Back in my childhood...can only afford 1:700
Looking good! Well done look forward to seeing the finished ship. I only wish they would come out with a 1/200 scale model of the Enterprise. 🤔
These are beautiful.. I have always loved the look of US carriers over all other carriers.. They look so formidable compared to other nations carriers!.. When I was a child I had a model of the (then) USS Enterprise sitting amongst all my girly stuff lol.. I still have it in my room at my parents lol.. I want to get it but my mother loves keeping my room as is.. I NEED that model so bad lol
I love all the little details, wish i had all my models from when I was younger sadly I had to sell them cause apparently I grew out of it but turns out it was me growing up so I thought I did I need it, now I wish I never sold them
Me too!
KNIFEGUY1701 Crikey! Talk about Ye olde nostalgic walk. What can I say - mois aussi, peut être. Well, French was not my strength at school. Come to think of it I was not too good at any of the other subjects. You are lucky that you did not keep those early model builds, heartache. Just like the real deal, they age - they come unglued, fall apart - a truly sad spectacle. Best to start anew. New models look better on 4K.
I bet yours wife is really pleased too!
Not to nit pick. But having grown up in the Navy during the Vietnam war era. The CV-11 USS Intrepid would not have carried A-1 SkyRaiders and A-7 Corsair II’s at the same time. The last A-1 squadrons were retired in 1966, the first A-7 squadrons deployed in 1967. I know because I lived at NAS Lemoore when this occurred.
Oh, well thanks for the feedback. Both planes came with the kit so I assumed they would be suitable. You should email Gallery models and let them know maybe?
Have you ever heard of a display case?
I know...
AWESOME!!! Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.
Excellent collection definitely a good job, I hope to see the nimitz class finished
How beautiful all your carriers... its so detailed and fantastic. Very.......Good Job!!!
Are you going to make that Nimitz class The Nimitz? If so I hope your remember VF 84 The Jolly Rogers Squadron. Their F14s used to do fly bys of my school in Norfolk Va. When it was its home port. That skull and cross bones on the rudders are to me the coolest Squadron Vandals ever There was a SIFI Movie called The Final Count Down. And The Nimitz gets caught in this odd storm. It travels back in time to Dec 5 1941 and they figure it out. Its a killer movie. Great Builds Sir
You have an F-35C on the wasp class, I recommend moving that to a carrier
They do have them on the Wasp, I've seen photos
@@JJModelMaking i would love to see a photo of a charlie on an LHA/D. They cannot land on them. The bravos can hover land like a harrier but the charlies need arresting cables.
Excellent ships. I think you got the colors spot on
Why? The Marines will be flying the F-35c vertical take-off version. Eventually. When or if they ever figure how to do it with 1 engine.
Your CV fleet looks great, but You know what should You add? some Axis power CV - Graff Zepelin or Shokaku/Akagi....or some modern evil one...Kuznietsov or some Chinesse carrier?:)
I better start saving up!
you should build the USS midway, last version, the mini supercarrier like one, in san diego
You could always build a Midway class put some Crusaders, an A-4 or 2 and a couple of A-6 intruders on the flight deck, pour some lighter fluid over it .Strike a match, and ta da You've got the U.S.S. Forrestal.
USS Wasp is a navy shipand having 2 different era's of aviation wings together is makes me uncomfortable as a navy man
The only reason it's a navy ship is because the marines are too busy eating crayons and working out to be bothered with the ship. Stop nitpicking. Its for the marines, which is part of the navy so he wasn't wrong.
@Jesus H Christ
Beautiful words from our Lord and savior Jesus h Christ amen
And its got the wrong F35
i know... i know that marines don’t use harrier now, and f35b’s wingtip won’t fold...
its just a great creation, right?
Ive gotten to see the intrepid twice its beautiful ship
