1/700 IJN Ise (Nichimo)
This model is made from Nichimo (30 cm. scale). It’s scale is almost 1/700. The component of this model is not good. There are no boat, motor boat, crane and sea plane. Nichimo fix weapons in the deck example 25 mm. caliber AA guns. I drill windows around hull by hand drill. I select to make it in water line style and change the hole part’s weapons by adding some parts (water line series) for example 5” 40 calibers AA guns, 25 mm. 60 calibers triple AA gun. The caliber of 14” 45 calibers is covered by canvas which I mould my self by epoxy putty and made the new crane. The hull is sprayed in dark gray. The deck is painted in brown and some other color (Mr.Color).
