Fine photo-etch detail for your Mutsu model

The Hasegawa 40068 Etching Detail Kit contains finely etched metal parts made to complement 1/350 scale IJN Battleship Mutsu builds, adding crisp detail where injection-moulded plastic falls short. These parts bring sharper definition to exposed metal fittings on the decks.

Recommended for modellers comfortable with small-scale work, the etches allow you to replicate lifelike railings, ladder runs and other fittings. With careful bending and placement the results significantly lift the realism of a finished naval model.

Can these etches be used on other 1/350 kits?

They are tailored for the IJN Battleship Mutsu at 1/350 scale, but many parts may be adapted to similar 1/350 hulls with minor trimming or modification.

How do I shape the etched pieces without damage?

Use a dedicated photo-etch bending tool or flat-nosed pliers and work slowly over a flat surface to avoid kinks. Test bends on scrap sections if possible.

What adhesive works best for metal-to-plastic joints?

A thin cyanoacrylate adhesive or a two-part epoxy applied sparingly provides a strong bond; use a primer for best paint adhesion afterwards.
