Detailed look at the Aoshima 06752 1/700 Hamakaze WL446

This Aoshima 06752 kit recreates the Japanese Navy Destroyer Hamakaze in 1/700 Water Line scale, offering a compact but accurate project for model ship builders. The WL446 tooling focuses on fine deck and superstructure detail, appealing to collectors who appreciate period naval design.

Background and scale fidelity

The Hamakaze had a notable service history, and this kit reflects the ship's lines and fittings in miniature. The parts are arranged to capture key features of the destroyer while staying true to the limitations of 1/700 scale, so you can study the vessel's layout and form as you assemble.

Build challenge and presentation

Parts are detailed and require patient assembly and finishing. This kit suits modelers with some experience in small-scale naval kits and offers a satisfying display piece when painted and weathered. Its Water Line format makes it easy to integrate into dioramas or shelf collections.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Required for realistic finish
The kit is better suited to hobbyists with some small-scale modelling experience. The tiny parts and close tolerances mean careful handling and steady glue work are needed.
Yes, the instructions include colour callouts to help you match historical schemes, but you will need your own paints and brushes or an airbrush for best results.
A set of fine cutters, hobby knife, tweezers, plastic cement, and fine files or sanding sticks will make assembly smoother. A magnifier can help with the smallest fittings.
