Fujimi 50022 - Yakushi-ji Higashi-Tou 1/100 Architectural Kit

The Fujimi 1/100 Yakushi-ji Temple Higashi-Tou model kit captures the essence of a historic east pagoda, offering modellers an opportunity to recreate traditional Japanese timber architecture. The kit emphasises the layered roofs and structural lines that define the original monument, making it a rewarding project for detail-oriented builders.

Traditional Style and Cultural Value

Yakushi-ji has roots in the 7th century and is celebrated for its Buddhist heritage. The Higashi-Tou is noted for its three-storey configuration and elegant wooden framework. Fujimi's scale interpretation preserves these hallmark features for study and display.

Detailed Build Process and Showcase Tips

The kit contains finely moulded components that require careful trimming and gluing. Finished models present strongly in display cabinets or museum-style layouts and pair well with other scale architecture for a curated collection.

A committed beginner can complete it, but expect a learning curve; taking extra time for test fits and following instructions carefully will help achieve good results.
Muted earth tones and wood-effect paints work well to mimic timber finishes; use thin layers and washes to bring out carved details.
This kit is designed for glued assembly to secure fine joints; use model-grade plastic cement for reliable bonds and minimal visible seams.
A simple base helps protect the model and frames it visually; consider a low-profile plinth or a diorama base with subtle landscaping.
