Aoshima 1/700 Light Cruiser Kashii #AO-04543 - historic naval subject in scale

The Aoshima 1/700 Light Cruiser Kashii kit offers a finely modelled representation of a WWII escort vessel. Its compact scale and well-defined components suit modellers who focus on naval history and realistic finishes.

Service history and scale fidelity

During World War II the Kashii acted mainly as an escort and training ship, and the kit mirrors the ship's distinguishing elements such as deck layout and superstructure. The parts aim to reproduce these aspects faithfully at 1/700 scale.

Construction guidance and presentation tips

The small scale requires careful assembly and painting to bring out the details. Use suitable adhesives and thin paint layers for the best result. When completed the model displays well alongside other 1/700 warships or as a standalone piece.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Required for authentic finish
This kit is best for modellers with some experience of small parts and painting. Inexperienced builders can still attempt it but should expect a learning curve with rigging and tiny fittings.
General hobby acrylics or enamels are suitable; choose shades based on historical references. A fine brush or airbrush will help achieve uniform coverage at 1/700 scale.
Yes, the scale matches common 1/700 ship ranges, so it pairs well with other vessels for a grouped display or a small flotilla diorama.
