Hi All!
I attach several photos of a 1/700 water line model of IJN battle ship Kirishima (霧島). This kit is sold by Fujimi Co. I have made it as a present for my friend.

The Kirisima was one of the four sisters of KONGO class battle ships.

I put a making diary of this model with photos on the web. The URL is below.

Hi Andy!
Thank you for looking and posting a comment. The Kirishima's eldest sister, IJN battle ship KONGO (金剛) was built in UK. Refering to KONGO, IJN built Kirishima(霧島), Hiei(比叡) and Haruna(榛名).
I'm now thinking about the next one.
Best Regards
Yutaro

Hi Jase!
Thank you for your comment and a good question.
I'm now planning to build a 1/700 IJN battle ship NAGATO(戦艦 長門).
Altough I have ever built 1/350 NAGATO, I want to try a 1/700 scale model the reason why some companies have recently started selling new photoetching parts and wooden deck parts for 1/700 models.
The etching parts are almost equal to ones for 1/350 models.
I shall post the photos here when I finish it.
Best Regards
Yutaro

Hi All!
I attached several additional photos of the KIRISHIMA on the sea surface plate.

In Japan such plates are in short supply, I got the plates at length several days ago.

Best Regards,
Yutaro
