Scale Reproduction of the IJN Kaga in 1/700

The Fujimi FJ-45189 kit reproduces the IJN Kaga at 1/700 scale with a complete full hull assembly. The inclusion of photo-etched parts helps replicate small fittings and shipboard details that elevate the finished model's authenticity for display or collection.

Modelling Appeal and Historical Context

The Kaga's prominence in early wartime operations makes it an attractive subject for naval modellers. This kit emphasises accurate lines and deck layout, while the etched metal components provide extra fidelity for yardarm and rail details.

Assembly Considerations and Finish Options

Parts are crisply moulded to keep fit and alignment straightforward for experienced builders. Photo-etched bits demand careful preparation but reward with crisp, to-scale elements. Painting, washes and subtle weathering will bring out the carrier's structural detail for an eye-catching result.

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic with Photo-Etched Parts
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint (not included)
  • Full Hull Design
Fitting photo-etch benefits from prior experience; careful bending, trimming and trial-fitting are needed to avoid distortions and to ensure clean attachment points.
Neutral greys and deck browns typical of early Pacific naval stocks are common choices; consult historical references or paint manufacturer guides for accurate shades and schemes.
Use removable holders, masking or temporary supports to paint small parts separately, then carefully attach them to preserve crisp finishes and avoid handling wear.
Yes, the 1/700 scale matches other kits in the range, allowing coordinated displays or dioramas that recreate fleet formations and harbour scenes.
