Revell's USS Intrepid

One of the beautiful boxes of the H-300 series, by far, the series that I liked the most of Revell Lodela's Boxart, and with some of the best ship paintings I have ever seen, is as usual in that series is by John Steel, and represents the USS Intrepid under attack.

The colors are intense, a naturalistic background with an orange sunset in the ocean, very much like the Turner, but with the aircraft carrier in a slightly off-center composition, with the waves denoting a forced maneuver, the ship is dodging the attack and we can almost feel that the roof is tilting and you have to hold on to something.

This box preserves the label of the extinct Gigante Store, model in the private collection of Sergio Tellez
