About product

The aircraft carrier IJN Ryujo in 1:700 scale (Fujimi)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the light aircraft carrier Ryujo from the maker Fujimi. The model captures the ship as she was after her first refit and offers finely engraved detail; the package also contains photo-etched metal parts that raise the small elements of the superstructure. The 1:700 scale is the collector's standard for warships.

The real subject

Ryujo was a Japanese light aircraft carrier commissioned at the start of the 1930s. She was built in an effort to get around the international tonnage limits of the day, which showed in her slender and relatively tall silhouette. She carried fighters and attack aircraft and was lost in 1942 in one of the battles for the Solomon Islands.

Building and painting tips

Assemble the hull and the flight deck first, then fill and clean up the seams. Glue the photo-etched parts with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) and work with a sharp knife and tweezers. Apply the steel surfaces and the deck with an airbrush and accentuate the fine lines with a panel wash. Railings and other small items hold their shape better once a coat of primer has been sprayed on.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Japanese aircraft carriers
  • Modelers with experience of working with photo-etched parts
  • Anyone interested in the naval aviation of the Second World War

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories beyond the photo-etched parts included are not part of the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes, the kit includes photo-etched metal parts for the fine detail of the superstructure.

Ryujo as she appeared after her first refit.

Working with photo-etched parts calls for some experience and cyanoacrylate glue, so the model is better recommended to more advanced builders.
