AFV Club Models is recognized for precision-engineered 1/350 scale naval kits that bring maritime history to life. This collection spans submarines and surface vessels across multiple eras, offering modelers a rich range of subjects to explore. Whether you are new to ship modeling or an experienced builder, the 1/350 scale strikes an ideal balance between impressive display size and manageable construction.
The 1/350 scale is one of the most popular standards in ship modeling, offering enough size to capture fine hull detail, deck equipment, and rigging without requiring a large display footprint. Kits at this scale are well-suited for diorama builds, waterline displays, and full-hull configurations. The category encompasses warships, submarines, and auxiliary vessels from the early twentieth century through the modern era.
AFV Club kits are known for finely engraved panel lines, accurate hull contours, and slide-molded components that reduce visible seams on complex shapes. Photo-etched detail parts are commonly included to represent railings, ladders, and deck fittings at a level of realism that injection-molded plastic alone cannot achieve. These engineering choices reflect a commitment to museum-quality accuracy across the lineup.
Submarine kits within the 1/350 category allow modelers to explore the technical complexity of underwater warfare vessels, from pressure hull construction to conning tower detail and deck armament. Many kits offer optional waterline or full-hull build configurations, giving builders flexibility in how they present the finished model. Submarine subjects span multiple navies and historical periods, making this a broad and rewarding area of the hobby.
Surface warship kits in 1/350 scale cover frigates, destroyers, and other naval combatants with detailed superstructures, weapons systems, and hull forms. These subjects reward careful painting and weathering techniques, and they pair well with aftermarket detail sets for builders seeking the highest level of accuracy. Explore 1/350 AFV Ship Accessories and 1/350 Eduard Ship Accessories to enhance any build.
1/350 scale naval kits lend themselves to a variety of display approaches, including waterline dioramas with sculpted sea bases, full-hull static displays, and multi-vessel fleet scenes. The scale is compatible with a wide range of aftermarket bases, figures, and rigging materials available from specialty suppliers. Planning your display format before starting a build helps guide decisions about painting sequence and assembly order.
Modelers who enjoy 1/350 scale ship kits often explore adjacent scales and subjects to build a diverse collection. The 1/700 AFV Model Ships collection offers a smaller scale option for fleet-scale dioramas and multi-vessel displays. Pairing kits across scales allows builders to represent entire task forces or compare vessel sizes within a single display.
Ship modeling at the 1/350 scale benefits from a well-equipped workspace with the right tools, adhesives, and finishing supplies. Browse the full Hobby Tools and Supplies collection to find everything you need to take your naval builds from the bench to the display shelf.
