Greetings!

Recently completed build of the IJN type B1 submarine I-35. Original tooling by Aurora from 1969 and reissued by Monogram in 1979, both boxed as I-19. Scale is generally described as 1/285, but some report 1/275 or even 1/333. I selected I-35 in order to match the style of the aircraft hanger on the kit part. Kit modified in a few places and several small details scratch built using Nichimo 1/200 scale I-19 kit instructions as a guide. Generic architectural model figures modified and added as crewmen. Many thanks for having a look, comments and questions are always welcome.

Bill

Wow - that started life as an Aurora kit? Well done!
