Here are some links I use:
http://www.squadron.com/Index.htm

http://www.modelersvault.com/
http://www.pacificfront.com/Default.htm
http://www.greatmodels.com/

For large scale resin ships: http://www.bluewaternavy.com/

Here's a place that makes large ships with working guns! (they are remote controlled and used BB gun type of system) http://www.swampworks.com/Catalog-main.html

If your looking foe a plastic model of an Aircraft Carrier, Tamiya makes a 1:350 scale of the U.S.S. Enetrprise (CV-65) and you can buy extra planes to fill-up the deck as well as brass etchings for realism. It is 42" long. The brass etchings give you realistic rails, antennas, saftey nets, Aircraft landing gear, props, and wing sponsons.

I have a 1:350 Monogram USS Missouri that I bought years ago. It measure's almost 32" long.

I've never had the ambition to finish assembling or painting it, so it's only partially assembled.

I'm not much of a modeler

Anyhow, here's what I have,


I only buy 1:48 or bigger scale airplanes, They are still all at my mothers place, but I do have this F-14 here.

If you buy the brass etching kit, You can add rails, stairs, and realistic antenna's.
This is the U.S.S. New Jersey in 1:350
It is a "work in progress".
