Aoshima 05826 1/700 I.J.N. Submarine I-156 Waterline Scale Model

The Aoshima 1/700 I.J.N. Submarine I-156 captures wartime lines and fine hull detail to complement a naval model collection. This kit recreates the I-156 from the Imperial Japanese Navy in a compact 1/700 waterline format that highlights the vessel's profile and silhouette.

Historic Role and Modelling Interest

The I.J.N. Submarine I-156 served a specific role during World War II, and this model makes it possible to study its form and function at scale. The kit's proportions and surface detail are faithful to the subject, making it attractive to builders focused on historical accuracy.

Building Experience

Assembly calls for careful handling of small components and steady glue work, giving experienced hobbyists a rewarding construction process. The waterline configuration lets you display the finished model as though it is afloat, enhancing diorama and shelf presentations.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
This kit is better suited to modellers who have some experience with small-scale builds. The tiny parts and precise alignment required make it a moderate to advanced challenge rather than an entry-level project.
Use a good quality plastic cement for strong joins and fine brushes or an airbrush for smooth paintwork. Acrylics and enamels are commonly used; test on spare sprue before applying to the model.
Mount the hull on a low-profile stand or water base to simulate the surface. Clear acrylic risers or a resin water diorama both work well to show the waterline effect.
