About product

Destroyers of the Yugumo class — Yugumo and Kazagumo 1:700 (Fujimi)

A plastic kit in 1:700 scale from the Japanese manufacturer Fujimi which, according to the name of the item, contains two models: the destroyers Yugumo and Kazagumo from one class. A double package is usual and handy with small surface units: you build them at once in one painting session, or you keep the second model for completing the escort of a larger formation.

The real subject

The Yugumo class followed on from the previous Japanese fleet destroyers and represented an improved version of them. They were fast units with a gun armament of 127 mm caliber in twin turrets and with a powerful torpedo armament, which was the main striking weapon of Japanese destroyers of that time. Ships of this class served in the Pacific with fleet formations and on supply and escort duties as well; both units from this package were lost over the course of the fighting.

Building and painting tips

Destroyers in 1:700 are small, but they have a pronounced silhouette, so it pays to concentrate on a straight hull, cleanly seated funnels and symmetrically fitted masts. Cut the parts off with a sharp knife and sand the traces of the sprue gates down before gluing, because on a finished model you will no longer get to them. Unify the gray finish with an airbrush in thin coats, set the planked deck apart with a warmer tone and soften the transitions with a wash. Railings and radar antennas are ideal candidates for photo-etch, and the projections of vents and small cranes can be sharpened up with thin wire.

Who the model is for

  • Modelers who collect Japanese fleet destroyers on a uniform scale.
  • Builders of larger dioramas and formations, where more escort units are needed.
  • Those interested in what the package holds: according to the name there are two models in it.
  • More experienced modelers used to small parts.

The model is supplied as a kit. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

According to the name it is a set of two pieces, that is, the destroyers Yugumo and Kazagumo. They are two separate models in one package.

Both ships belonged to one class, so they start from the same basis. Whether the package contains parts for distinguishing the particular units is given in the enclosed instructions.

Rather for a more advanced beginner. The build is straightforward, but in 1:700 scale the parts are very small and call for a sharp knife, tweezers and patience.

Photo-etched railings and fine antennas. At this scale plastic is necessarily thicker than reality would warrant, and etched metal evens that difference out.
