Close study of the 1/700 I-19 submarine model

The Aoshima 05208 - 1/700 I-19 Imperial Japanese Navy Submarine kit recreates a classic WWII submarine in a compact scale, offering parts that reflect the vessel's structure and key features. It is intended for modellers who prefer precise assembly and research-based finishing.

Finishing choices like subtle washes and careful brushwork will enhance the small-scale details. The kit is suitable for collectors and modellers who want a historically inspired subject without a large footprint.

What level of skill suits this kit?

Intermediate skill is a good fit due to the scale and fine detail; beginners can build it with patience and basic modelling tools.

Which adhesives work best for tiny parts?

Use a thin plastic cement or cyanoacrylate applied sparingly for small fittings; a fine applicator helps avoid excess glue on visible surfaces.

Can I paint sub assemblies before final joining?

Yes. Painting some sections prior to final assembly can make detail painting easier, but plan joins to avoid blocking attachment points.

How do I represent weathering at this scale?

Apply light washes, dry brushing and gentle pigment work to suggest wear without covering up fine moulded detail.
