Hi mates,
And just to do something new ... I decided to launch myself into the construction of the first Chinese space station TianGong-1 and the Shenzhou-8 module.
Tiangong-1 ( literally: 'Heavenly Palace 1" or "Celestial Palace 1') was China's first prototype space station. It orbited Earth from September 2011 to April 2018, serving as both a manned laboratory and an experimental testbed to demonstrate orbital rendezvous and docking capabilities during its two years of active operational life. Here more info:

Looking good! It would be tempting to fit either, or both, with a CBMS and show it/them docked with the ISS.

Agreed!! You match the illustration beautifully. I'm a bit surprised as I would have expected solar panels to be darker (consider the ones used on the ISS).
