Aoshima 06726 1/700 IJN Akashi Waterline Scale Model  [AO-06726]

Aoshima 06726 - 1/700 IJN Akashi Waterline Model Introduction

The Aoshima 1/700 scale model of the IJN repair ship Akashi captures the essentials of a wartime repair vessel for hobbyists and history fans. The Aoshima 06726 kit focuses on practical deck arrangement and workshop areas, making it suitable for accurate modelling and display.

Service Background and Modelling Uses

Akashi served as a floating workshop, vital to keeping warships operational in distant waters. This waterline kit allows modellers to represent that support role within a fleet scene or a dockside diorama.

Building Experience

The model offers intermediate difficulty with small, precise parts that benefit from careful assembly and paintwork. Adding panel shading and subtle weathering will enhance the sense of scale on the finished Akashi.
