1/700 Revell model (partial model purchased off of eBay, had to make some parts myself to replace what was missing), with Trumpeter 1/700 Tomcats added, custom tow tractors and other modifications. "Water" is sculpted styrofoam with aluminum foil overlay and Woodland Scenics Realistic Water and Water Effects. Paint is Apple Barrel and Folk Art Acrylics.
This model is my attempt to depict the ship underway in September 1974. I probably made more than a few errors (probably the positioning of craft on the flight deck), but I did the best I had with what I had to work with.
