Two entirely professionally built, painted, and detailed US Naval amphibious assault ships. LPD-7, USS Iwo Jima and LPD-21, USS New York in 1/350 scale. Both were made as kits by Gallery. #64002 for the 1/350 scale USS Iwo Jima, LHD-7 and #64007 for the 1/350 scale USS New York, LPD-21, then painstakingly built, detailed, painted, and set up as you see in the pictures. These are large ships. The LHD, USS Iwo is over 30 long. The LPD, USS New York is about 24 long. You can see for yourself the level of detail that has been built into them. Both have spacious well decks for landing craft and assault air cushion craft to dock. The models, as shown, have been professionally built, painted, detailed, and have had after market Photo etch and Resin parts added, and in the case of the Iwo Jima, a lighting system for her hangar bay, her well deck, and her equipment/vehicle deck, installled and added. All sensors are detailed, as well as equipment including the tow trucks for the carrier, Marine vehicles are in the LCU, the Air Cushion vehicle, and on the equipment deck. The amount of detail is amazing. These ships make up the better part of a US Navy ARG (Amphibious Ready Group) and come with additionally aircraft from what was included in the model. In the case of the Iwo Jima, an entire air wing including transport helos, attack helos, its entire wing of AV-8B Harrier IIs, etc, as well as additional Marine equipment with both an air cushion vehicle and an LCU fully loaded in the well deck, and more equipment back on the vehicle deck waiting to load. These are very well done ships. For any US Marine or US Naval personnel who served on these specific ships, or those like them, they would make for a very special arrangement after retirement or leaving service. These types of vessels can be bought through wood makers who detail and paint their models well, but then charge twice as much and more for them. These models, with their after market detailing sets are far more detailed and much more closely resemble the “real” thing. It took a good six months to build and detail the ships as you see.
