Fujimi1/700 IJN Series No.24 EX-3 Japanese Navy Aircraft Carrier Soryu Full Hull Model Special Edition (with Etched Parts And Wooden Deck Stickers)

A special edition of the Imperial Navy Series “Aircraft Carrier Soryu” featuring etched parts and wooden deck decals! The decals include the Hinomaru flags on the carrier-based aircraft, white lines on the deck, and the naval ensign. The model features a full-hull design that allows for reproduction down to the keel, and includes a display stand for showcasing the finished model. Both the conventional one-piece 25mm twin machine gun parts and the more precise two-piece parts are included. The 25mm machine guns are constructed in two pieces, making it easy to paint the gunmetal-colored barrels and the hull-colored bases separately. Etching parts are included to capture even the finest details that are difficult to reproduce with injection-molded parts. The etching parts include handrails, bridge window frames, davits, signal lights, elevators (fore, midship, and aft), eight arresting wires, wind screens, arresting gear, and searchlight hatches. The wooden deck decals have been surface-treated with a laser cutter to reproduce an irregular wood grain pattern. They are cut to fit the kit’s parts, allowing you to easily and realistically recreate the intricate lines of the wooden deck pattern?a detail that is difficult to achieve with paint alone. Please note that colors may appear different from the actual product due to monitor settings and image resolution. (From the Fujimi Models website)
