haneto Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Also finished in March but finally found time to show this little gem. The Mikro Mir kit just like other typical low pressure injection kit, has the better shape and more accurate details than Hobbyboss kit, but suffers from bad fitting, lack of antennas and poor decal (it split into pieces when hit the water). So I scratch built the antennas and rador, etc. and spend 1.5 hours to merge those decal pieces... The final result shows it worth every second for the kit. Hope you like it! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courageous Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 A very well built and painted Alpha. The photography is very good making your Alpha looks very menacing. Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flankerman Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Excellent build and paint finish - and superb photography Yufei I agree about MikroMir - their range of 1/350 scale subs are a godsend to us submarine modellers - both in subject matter and availability.

Ken Thank you Ken and all guys for your encouragement! I love Cold War submarines and the stories Tom Clancy gave us in my childhood. Will post another one soon...
