After enhancing Dragon’s 1/350 scale USS Independence with Eduard photo-etched metal and painting the ship, including most of the markings with Model Master enamels, Benjamin beefed up the air wing with extra Wildcats from Trumpeter. “The figures?” he says. “What a fiasco! In the end, mostly what you see are 1/350 scale figures from North Star Models and Tamiya. I believe there are around a 100 or so on the ship. Honestly, it took so much work to get them painted and in place, I have no idea how many are on deck. So, if you are looking for a specific number, roughly, a lot, is my answer.”
