Do I need specialist tools to build this model?

Basic modelling tools such as sprue cutters, a hobby knife, fine files and tweezers are useful for clean assembly and handling small fittings.

How accurate is the armament layout for 1944?

The kit aims to reproduce the armament and superstructure arrangement consistent with the ship's 1944 configuration to give a credible display model.

What finish works well for display models?

Many builders use muted tones, subtle weathering and a matt or satin varnish to match wartime appearance and reduce glare under display lighting.

Can I mount this kit on a base or diorama?

Yes. The model suits display on a plinth or within a small diorama setting, and adding a water effect or custom base can enhance presentation.
