Freighter_Ship_Model-21
Introducing here is a 1:32 scale 3ft long model of a WW2 era Japanese coastal cargo ship. This model was commissioned by a private museum. According to the customer's wish this model is not depicting any particular vessel, but rather a summary of small freighter's designs of 1920s - 1940s period of time. It is not a warship, it is a civilian vessel, drafted to transport military supplies.
This model features a bridge with removable roof to view the interior, a single derrick and a partially opened cargo bay with a simulation of a generic payload. A very interesting feature is a Japanese Type3 80mm Anti-Aircraft gun. It was a common gun during WW2, however reference materials for it are extremely scarce, therefore restoring the look of this gun was quite challenging.
The model was designed in 3D software, parts produced out of high durability plastic and clear resin. Assembly and painting - manually.
