1/350 Scale Ship Accessories
The 1/350 scale is one of the most popular formats for serious ship modelers, offering a balance between fine detail and manageable build size. This category covers the full range of aftermarket enhancements available for warship kits in this scale — from structural detail parts to surface finishing components. Whether you are building a WWII battleship, a modern carrier, or a destroyer, aftermarket accessories allow you to push your model well beyond the kit's out-of-box level of detail.
Photo-Etched Brass Details
Photo-etched brass is the cornerstone of 1/350 ship detailing. Chemically milled from thin brass sheet, these parts reproduce railings, ladders, radar arrays, deck fittings, and structural elements at a level of fineness that injection-molded plastic cannot match. Manufacturers across the hobby industry produce photo-etch sets tailored to specific kits as well as universal sets that can be adapted across multiple builds. Explore the brand collections in this category to find sets compatible with your kit.
Wooden Deck Sets
Laser-cut wooden deck sets replace the molded plastic deck surface with real wood, adding authentic grain texture and color that paint alone cannot replicate. These sets are precision-cut to fit specific kit hulls and typically include pre-stained planking, caulking lines, and sometimes photo-etched deck hardware. They are among the most visually impactful upgrades available for 1/350 warship models. Browse the brand collections to find deck sets for your specific vessel.
Resin Detail Parts
Resin casting allows manufacturers to produce highly detailed replacement parts and add-on components that would be impractical in injection-molded plastic. In the 1/350 ship category, resin parts commonly include weapons systems, anti-aircraft mounts, searchlights, small craft, ventilators, and deck equipment. Resin parts are typically drop-in replacements for kit parts or additions that fill gaps in the original kit's detail level.
Turned Metal Gun Barrels & Fittings
Turned brass and aluminum gun barrels are machined on a lathe to produce perfectly round, hollow-tipped barrels that plastic parts cannot replicate. They add immediate visual authenticity to main battery turrets, secondary armament, and anti-aircraft weapons. Turned metal fittings such as anchor chains, cleats, and bollards are also available for builders seeking maximum realism across every detail of the hull.
Carrier Aircraft & Deck Equipment
Aircraft carrier models benefit enormously from accurately scaled deck aircraft, tractors, ordnance carts, and handling equipment. The 1/350 scale supports a wide range of carrier aircraft spanning WWII through the modern era, allowing builders to populate flight decks with historically accurate complements. Deck equipment sets add the operational clutter that brings a carrier scene to life. Browse the brand collections to find aircraft and deck accessories suited to your carrier build.
Crew Figures & Decals
Crew figures in 1/350 scale add human scale reference and narrative to a finished model. Figures are available in resin and white metal, typically depicting sailors in working poses, dress uniforms, or action stations. Naval decals in this scale cover hull numbers, waterline markings, aircraft insignia, and deck surface patterns. Both categories are available across multiple navies and time periods within this section.
