Aoshima 06963 - 1/700 Japanese Navy Heavy Cruiser Maya WL339 model

The Aoshima 1/700 Maya kit reproduces the profile of this Takao-class heavy cruiser in compact scale. It is a practical choice for modellers who want a historically grounded subject with clear lines suitable for detailing and weathering.

Model highlights and historical background

The Maya served as a powerful surface unit in the Pacific campaign, and this kit reflects the key silhouette and deck arrangement that interest naval historians and kit builders alike. It provides an accessible way to study period warship styling.

Construction advice and presentation ideas

Small fittings require precise work, so prepare thin glue, sharp tools and fine brushes. With careful painting and subtle weathering, the finished Maya makes an attractive display piece in a cabinet or on a themed shelf.
