About product

IJN figures 1:700 (Eduard)

A color photo-etched set of figures in 1:700 scale from the Czech manufacturer Eduard. It is not a plastic kit but a detail accessory – a fret of fine etched figures of Japanese sailors that bring the deck of a model of an Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) ship to life. The figures are pre-colored, so once cut from the fret they are practically ready to be placed.

The real subject

The Imperial Japanese Navy was among the strongest fleets in the world during the Second World War and its ships carried numerous crews. In the small 1:700 scale a deck model looks empty until there are people on it — and it is the placement of the crew that gives a battleship or a cruiser scale and life. The set therefore aims at collectors who want to take their ship models toward a realistic scene.

Building and painting tips

Cut the photo-etched figures carefully from the fret with a sharp knife, ideally on a hard surface. Glue them with cyanoacrylate in small drops; thinned PVA glue suits the final fixing without smearing the surroundings. The color rendering only needs gentle highlighting if anything, and the whole finish can be evened out with a light matte overspray. Work with tweezers and protect your airways when sanding.

Who the set is for

  • Collectors of models of Imperial Japanese Navy ships in 1:700 scale
  • Modelers who want to bring a deck to life with a crew
  • Advanced builders used to working with photo-etch
  • Anyone interested in realistic naval dioramas

The set is supplied as a photo-etched accessory; it is not a standalone model. The color rendering is already on the parts, and glue is not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No, it is a photo-etched accessory – a fret of tiny figures of a Japanese naval crew. The ship itself has to come from another kit.

Yes, the photo-etched set is already color-rendered, so once cut off the parts are practically ready to use and only need discreet touching up.

Best with cyanoacrylate in small drops, using tweezers. Working with photo-etch calls for a delicate hand.
