Outstanding kit
This is the IJN Chikuma, second (and last) ship of the Tone class. This model is jammed with detail, and strikes a unique pose. The PE in this kit is silver, which provides a nice contrast with the paint scheme. It's sprinkled throughout the build, some of it prominent (crane, catapults, propellers. The fit was interesting. Tamiya chose to attach the sides and decks with screws and brackets. I chose to glue the sides, but screwed in the deck. The fit was good, maybe better with glue. Air wing consists of two E7K2's, and four Men's. They come with decals, and they fit nicely on the aft of the ship. There are slight differences between the cruising state, and the combat state, but they are there and identified. Definitely a must have for your collection, and a blast to build.
