IJN "Yukikaze"

Post by belfer »

Hello everyone !
IJN "Yukikaze" (Japanese: Snow Wind). Hasegawa in 1/350 scale
The Kagero-class destroyer was one of the few to survive the war, taking an active part in its largest operations. After the end of fights, it was sent to the transport of repatriates and then handed over to China as war reparations. Scrapped in 1970 from typhoon damage.
The model shows the ship in her late configuration during the April 1945 suicide operation "Ten-Go" (along with eight other destroyers, the cruiser Yahagi and the battleship Yamato).
This is my first approach to the subject of model ships 🙂
Working on it was quite pleasant, except from a few moments in working on the PE parts (sometimes terrible little ones). Rigging made of Uschi van den Rosten lycra and brass wires 0.1.
I hope there is no tragedy, but any constructive opinions for the future are welcome 🙂
Best wishes !

That's stunning work - especially as it's your first ship :clap: :clap: :clap:

The weathering on the hull is just awesome!

I think you did a helluva job :th:

Love the look of it and the subtle weathering, nothing too heavy just the right amount :cheers2:

Absolutely stunning, I've never done a ship before but if I could build one anywhere near your standard I'm certainly not going to rule it out.
