Yamato's Yukikaze Missile Escort Ship by Fine Molds model

Post by greg »

This summer I began working on Fine Molds' Missile Escort Ship. It doesn't say so, but this is from Space Battleship Yamato. Fine Molds had the license to the ship design, but not the Yamato name. So, it was marketed with a different paint scheme instead of the yellow, red, and white scheme. I am painting this one up with the Yamato color scheme, using the Mr. Color Yamato paint set. A friend in the States will make decals for me to make it accurate to the show, since the decals that come with the kit are unique only to the kit.

Here's the first build on DailyMotion:

Or here it is on YouTube:

Here is the second video on YouTube:

You can see the Yamato Color set for the Combined Cosmo Fleet in action.

I'd provide a link to the Daily Motion video, but it has age-restricted it as "explicit content" for some reason. It must be some glitch. I contacted their support.

I totally forgot to post the followup to this model build.

Here's the third and final build video.
