Second of my little Chinese submarines. This time in dry dock. 351 is a sole boat of 033G1 type, which is standard 033G converted to carry 6 cruise missile launchers. I have built her already in 1/144 scale. I guess now I should build her in 1/350 on water to  exploit all available scales and ways to display a submarine model

Crew from ION Model, Vehicles, crates and drums are 3D printed by a friend of mine. I hope you'll enjoy

Very impressive diorama!

How was you experience in assembling the Type 033G? Especially in the area with the missile launchers?

I have the kit, but I have not yet built it.

Thanks. Kit is typical Fly Hawk, no problems. Only downside is the lack of PE.

Nicely done. Just the right amount of weathering.
