Fujimi 46098 1/700 IJN Aircraft Carrier Shinano Special Edition with Photo-Etched Parts NX-8 EX-201 - precision naval model kit  [FJ-46098]

Fujimi 1/700 Shinano special edition - kit overview

This Fujimi 1/700 scale representation of the IJN Aircraft Carrier Shinano recreates a notable World War II warship with attention to hull lines and profile. The Shinano's conversion from a battleship hull into an aircraft carrier makes it an absorbing subject for model builders who enjoy historical detail and careful assembly.

Why the Shinano appeals to builders

The Shinano has a unique place in naval history due to its rapid conversion and limited service life. This kit captures those distinctive proportions and offers a modelling experience focused on research and accurate assembly rather than quick builds.

Photo-etched parts for fine scale detail

The special edition includes photo-etched parts that let you refine railings, vents and deck fittings. These items lift the finished appearance, giving a sharper silhouette and realistic small-scale surface detail when fitted carefully.
