Aoshima 1/350 Christian Radich New
Because if elegance had a hull and discipline had rigging, it would look like Christian Radich. This iconic Norwegian sail training ship is all clean lines and quiet authority, and Aoshima’s 1/350 scale kit turns that grace into a build that rewards patience and precision rather than brute force.
Product Info
This plastic model kit is produced by Aoshima and recreates the famous Norwegian sail training vessel Christian Radich in detailed 1/350 scale. Best known for her classic barque rig and international appearances, the ship is a symbol of traditional seamanship and understated maritime beauty.
About the Ship
Christian Radich is a three-masted barque built for sail training, combining functional naval design with refined aesthetics.

About the Model
The kit features finely molded plastic parts depicting the hull, deck fittings, masts, and structural details with clean, sharp definition. Assembly and painting are required, allowing builders to choose between a pristine ceremonial finish or subtle weathering. As with most sailing ship kits at this scale, careful rigging work is a major part of the build and very much the point.

Christian Radich makes a striking centerpiece and pairs beautifully with other classic sail training ships. If you enjoy slow, deliberate builds that end in something genuinely classy, this kit earns its place.
