Introduction to the 1/1700 EX Model La Vie en Rose

The Bandai 1/1700 EX Model La Vie en Rose Kit is designed for experienced modellers who appreciate compact, accurate reproductions. The kit captures the repair ship's profile with well-defined panels and assembly-friendly components.

Detailing and Mould Accuracy

The La Vie en Rose shows the EX Model range's strong focus on detailed moulding and tidy surface definition. Small features are clearly represented, which makes fine finishing and panel lining effective.

Build Level and Essential Kit Tools

With a moderate build level, this kit suits those comfortable with precision work. Tools to have on hand include side cutters, a sharp hobby knife for trimming, and sanding sticks for smoothing joins.

Finishing Steps and Preservation

After light sanding, use panel lining to accentuate structure and apply decals carefully. A clear topcoat will protect your paint and make the finished model display-ready for shelf or case.

Yes, remove parts carefully from the sprue and trim remaining nubs to ensure flush joins and clean seams before gluing or snapping together.
Satin or gloss varnishes work well depending on your display preference; gloss highlights decals while satin reduces harsh reflections under display lights.
Painting is optional but recommended to enhance panel detail; even basic hand-painting and washes improve visual depth substantially.
After decals have settled and dried, apply a neat clear coat to seal them and reduce the chance of lifting during handling or display.
