Authentic Water Line 1/700 Model of IJN Tatsuta

The Hasegawa 49310 Water Line kit recreates the IJN Tatsuta at 1/700 scale with careful attention to hull lines and deck fittings. It is designed for hobbyists who want an accurate piece that sits neatly with other waterline ships.

Assembly requires patience and good brush or airbrush painting to reveal subtle panel and superstructure detail. Proper finishing will produce a convincing representation suitable for display shelves or group ship arrangements.

Are instructions in the Hasegawa 49310 clear for assembly?

Yes, the kit includes illustrated assembly steps typical of Hasegawa, but careful part prep and dry-fitting are advised before gluing.

Do I need special tools to build this kit?

Basic modelling tools are sufficient: sprue cutters, hobby knife, fine files, tweezers and modelling glue. A fine brush or airbrush is helpful for authentic finishes.

Which paints match the original ship colours?

Reference photos guide paint choices. Many builders choose neutral greys and other naval tones; check historic sources or established colour guides for accuracy.

Can this model join a larger fleet display?

Yes, the Water Line scale is ideal for grouping with other 1/700 ships to form a convoy or harbour scene. Consistent finishing ties the display together.
