Aoshima 1:700 — a self-adhesive wooden deck for Fuso and Yamashiro

An accessory for models of the Japanese battleships Fuso and Yamashiro in 1:700 scale. It is a self-adhesive sheet with the structure of deck planks printed on it, cut exactly to the shape of the individual deck areas. It is stuck onto the plastic deck of the model and thus replaces the most difficult part of the painting — the regular pattern of the wood, which with a brush is practically impossible to do convincingly and evenly. It is not a kit: the model of the ship itself has to be obtained separately.

Why it pays off

The wooden decks of Japanese battleships take up a large part of the visible area of a model and catch the attention at once. A deck painted by hand in 1:700 scale usually looks either too uniform or, on the contrary, exaggeratedly contrasting. The printed sheet has the pattern in the correct scale, keeps a constant tone over the whole area and at the same time lines up with the cutouts for the turrets, the superstructures and the deck equipment, so the laborious cutting to a template falls away.

The real subject

Fuso and Yamashiro were two battleships of the class of the same name, brought into service in the second half of the 1910s. In the 1930s they went through an extensive modernization in which they gained the conspicuously tall and complex command superstructure typical of Japanese battleships of that time. Both ships were lost in October 1944 during the fighting in the Philippines.

How to stick the sheet on

  • degrease the plastic deck beforehand and rid it of dust as well as of grease from your fingers
  • lay the sheet on dry first and verify that it lines up with the openings and the superstructures
  • stick it on gradually from one edge and press the air out so that no bubbles arise
  • press the edges down with a soft tool so that they do not lift
  • the finished deck can be refined with a very thinned wash and fine pigment

This is an accessory, not a model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. It is only the self-adhesive deck sheet, which is stuck onto an already obtained model of the battleship in 1:700 scale.

The sheet is cut for the Fuso and Yamashiro models of the same manufacturer. With a kit of another brand the fit is not guaranteed — always lay it on dry first.

You do not have to. Both the structure and the tone are printed. If you want, the look can be refined with a very thinned wash or fine pigment, but a heavy layer of paint would cover the pattern.

Degrease the deck, lay the sheet down gradually from one edge and press the air out continuously with a soft tool. Dropping the whole area down in one go is the most frequent cause of bubbles.
