Sumpu Castle is located in Aoi Ward, Shizuoka City, Shizuoka Prefecture, and was built by Ieyasu Tokugawa. The castle was built three times, first during the Tensho era in the late Sengoku period, and the second during the Keicho I period (1607) in the early Edo period. The castle tower was destroyed by fire shortly after its completion. The third was rebuilt in the Keicho II period (1610).
The late watchtower style castle tower has five layers and seven stories. It was built by the order of feudal lords all over the country with the highest quality building materials and skilled craftsmen.
It was built in the center of the castle tower base 68 meters below the west side, the largest in the history of the castle, and its brave appearance was truly a Japanese representative castle.
In the era of Ogosho politics until Ieyasu died at Sumpu Castle, Sunpu prospered as a political and economic center along with Edo.
This kit uses a unique design (1/150 scale) to model the mysterious appearance of the castle tower based on research materials of the Keicho II period castle tower.
The beautiful appearance of Sumpu Castle such as the Chinese gable and hafu decoration is made of wood, and the Giboshi of Shachihoko and parapet is made of metal. The stone wall of the huge castle tower is natural wood (the age of gods).
The expression of the moat uses water surface film sheet (both included in the kit). The assembly manual is color for all pages. The recommended paints are also included for those who want to paint.
* Paints are not included in the kit.
