Default Kilo photos and drawings

In preparation for making my Kilo model I am looking for good pictures and drawings with details of the small bit which I can do to make my model stand out.

Now I've done a search of the net and got some good stuff but if someone has anything unusual then please let me know.

cheers.

Have you seen the movie 72 Meters? The whole movie has a kilo in it.

I did on tape, my 3 year old destroyed it.

I should have asked my mother in law to bring it over.

Cheers for all the help anyway.

Even American boats get to be that ugly below the waterline after a while. But as for the screw it looks like a pump jet on there.

The trick is telling a 636 kilo and an 877 kilo apart.

I know that on one of the variants the turtle deck blends into the main hull, the Alrosa there is listed as an 877 but I have also seen it written that the 636 has the non blended turtle deck. I'm wanting to know so that when my kit arrives I can make it correctly.

Morning folks! sorry i havnt been on xabba been away driving to your neck of the woods in glasgow, im back now how long for i dont know.

Alrosa is the only one of a kind kilo has a water jet as you can see at its back end, its a 877 kilo.

It depends what your looking for really is it just the hull or the decals the back end you could turn it into a chinese yuan (please dont its a monstrosity), but to be honest 636's are pretty identicle and so are the 877's numbers and awards on the hull differ so do decals, i have a few pictures most of the ones i have are now on places like google and that.
