This replica set brings a human element and a touch of lived-in realism to your large-scale IJN Akagi model.

The Legacy of the "Red Castle"

The IJN Akagi was a renowned aircraft carrier that played a pivotal role in the early naval campaigns of World War II. While her flight deck and aircraft are often the focus, the tower was the nerve center of the ship. These futons were a distinctive feature, often used by the bridge crew for quick rest during long watches or even stacked as makeshift splinter protection. This model allows you to recreate a fascinating and historically accurate detail of the Japanese naval experience.

Exceptional Craftsmanship & Design

• Museum-Quality Realism: At the impressive 1/35 scale, this set captures the fine details of the 169 futons and their specific storage arrangement within the tower. Every fold and stacked layer is rendered with exquisite fidelity, providing a level of detail that transforms a mechanical structure into a lived-in environment.
• Premium Material: Crafted in High Detail Resin Gray, this set offers superior precision and a remarkably smooth finish. The white resin is the perfect choice for showcasing the fabric-like textures of the bedding and ensures a professional, museum-grade appearance. The hollowed design is intelligently engineered to maintain structural integrity while remaining lightweight for easy installation.
• Unleash Your Artistic Vision: The unpainted finish provides the perfect canvas for your creativity. You can customize the futons with historically accurate off-white or light tan tones, adding subtle washes to highlight the folds and shadows. This level of customization is essential for achieving the authenticity and realism required for a world-class maritime diorama.
