1/350 Scale Late-War Shimakaze Model

The Hasegawa 40029 represents the IJN Shimakaze at 1/350 scale, highlighting the ship's notable speed and its advanced torpedo outfit from the late stages of World War II. The model captures key profile and deck details to offer an authentic-looking subject for display or study.

Intended for model builders with a steady hand, this kit has many small components and requires attentive assembly and painting to achieve the intended effect. The end result rewards patience with a compact but highly detailed representation of one of Japan's noteworthy destroyer designs.

  • Scale: 1/350
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires assembly
  • Paint and Decals: Not included, recommended for enhanced realism

Is this kit suitable for display dioramas?

Yes, the scale and level of detail make it well suited for shelf displays or small harbour dioramas once painted and weathered to match the scene.

What tools will help with fine parts?

A sharp hobby knife, fine tweezers, micro files, and thin super glue are recommended to handle the tiny fittings and photo-etch upgrades safely.

Are decals included for markings?

Decals are not included; model makers often source aftermarket decal sheets or paint insignia by hand for more accurate late-war markings.
