Fujimi 50105 1/850 Scale Himeji Castle Replica

The Fujimi 50105 kit presents Himeji Castle in 1/850 scale, preserving its distinctive curving roofs and defensive layers in miniature. It is intended for builders who value historical accuracy and a tidy presentation once complete.

Significance and Faithful Reproduction

As a notable structure from the early 17th century, Himeji Castle features ornate design and strategic layout. Fujimi's kit aims to mirror those characteristics on a small scale so the architectural story remains clear to viewers.

Is the Fujimi 50105 appropriate for a collector display?

Yes, when painted and finished it makes a neat, high-detail exhibit piece suitable for display cabinets or themed shelves.

What adhesives should I use for the plastic parts?

Use plastic cement for strong, clean joins; superglue can be used sparingly for tiny fittings but may affect paint adhesion.

Can I paint the model with brushes or should I airbrush?

Brush painting produces excellent results with careful layering, while an airbrush offers smoother coverage for larger surfaces like walls and roofs.

Are decals or extra detailing parts included?

This kit focuses on moulded detail; check the instructions for any small parts, but additional decals or aftermarket details are generally not included.

How should I store unused parts during the build?

Keep sprues and small components in labeled bags or a small parts tray to avoid loss and to keep the workspace organised through multi-session builds.
