What is actually required to make this model kit the way it is in the picture? I know I need all the tools and paint, but is anything else required?

Hi Noah,It builds perfect out of the box but if you want to add some nice details I recommend replacing the barrels with turned brass or aluminum, and rails. If you want to take it a step further - get a PE set as well and the wooden deck.It is time consuming (like any ship kit) but both Tamiya and Dragon kits are excellent design and engineered.Cheers!

Are the main artillery guns movable?

Yes. you can configure the main guns to be movable

What would be the measurements in cm?

The 1/350 scale Tamiya is 75.1 cm in length and a beam of 11 cm.
