1/350 IJN Amagiri Fine Molds

[Plumbum]

I am finished, I could find no pictures of a late war Amagiri so I went on

some old pictures and some suggestions from fellow modelers.---John

A very smart piece of modelling on an impressive vessel.

nice model , I  have build the Fine Molds ( of Japan ) Aircraft Kits in 1/48 scale - the Ki.43 III Koh and A7M Reppu and those were lovely ( equal to Hasegawa )

 

I gather that the Fine Molds Destroyers are easily the equal to Tamiya - so well done - I am also aware that no-one has done an etch set for their kits ( not even Infini of Korea )

which is a shame ....... I also hear the Fine Molds Warship Kits are not cheap - so well done getting one ( did you buy this from ebay ? ) -

 

This is a rare Class of Model in 1/350 - as its the Fubuki ( Special Type ) Class Destroyer .........so thanks for showing it here

Thanks, I bought it in 2010 and it was just under $100 at that time. The fit is incredable,

it's like Tamiya at it's best! It can be found a lot cheaper today! There are upgrades for it,

turned barrels, PE but the worst part is trying to find pictures of it especially in it's late war

scheme. I wish the Japanese had a site like Navsource with good pictures at different times of it's history.---John
