About product

Large IJN harbor cranes, photo-etched set 1:700, Fujimi

A set of photo-etched parts from the Japanese manufacturer Fujimi in 1:700 scale for building the large harbor cranes that stood in Japanese naval bases. This is not a ship model but a diorama add-on — it is precisely the massive cranes that give a harbor scene scale, depth and the authentic atmosphere of a naval arsenal.

The real subject

The Japanese naval arsenals such as Kure, Yokosuka or Sasebo were among the largest shipbuilding complexes of their day. Battleships and aircraft carriers were built in them, and their silhouette was defined by the giant gantry and slewing cranes that lifted armor plates, gun turrets and machinery units. In 1:700 scale they are prominent landmarks, and a convincing harbor diorama cannot do without them.

Building tips

Bend the lattice structures of the photo-etched parts step by step along the score lines, ideally in a bending tool, and bond them with super glue in small amounts. Degrease the structure before painting and give it a coat of primer. Rust weathering and chipped paint done with washes and drybrushing will give the cranes a working look.

Who the set is for

  • for makers of harbor dioramas in 1:700 scale
  • for modelers of Japanese warships who want to set the scene in a base
  • for more advanced modelers with experience in photo-etched parts
  • for collectors of unusual naval add-ons

This is an add-on set, not a ship model. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted; glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, the set holds only the parts for building the cranes. The ships and the base of the diorama have to be dealt with separately.

It is fine work with bending and bonding metal with super glue. We recommend experience with photo-etched parts, a bending tool and tweezers.

Yes, this is a standalone diorama add-on in 1:700 scale that can be combined with ships from any manufacturer in the same scale.
