Another great Kilo, Somboon!
They are really good kits and full of potential - you need to try and make one waterline or in a diorama
A note for you and others making the Hobby Boss 1/700 subs full hull is to replace the kit propeller/screw part with PE ones (Rusty White has a 1/700 PE set). These will be much more realistic than the chunky thick parts (*1)
Congratulations
Cheers,
Rui

Considering the scale of these (what do you call them - submarine or boat) wonderful looking projects, you've done a very good paint job on all of them, I would like to have seen some close-up pix though.
Thank you for sharing.

I do agree, very nice!
Al, a submarine is called a boat.
