shadowmare Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 (edited) New Chaika from ICM, nice kit, fast to build. I made conversion to early type - with spinner similar to I-16 or I-15 Bis. I think that it is prettier than late - but it is only my opinion. It looks like a cartoon plane, from Mickey Mouse comic book . List of additions and modifications: - new spinner - new exhaust tube on fuselage, smaller exhausts on engine cover made from solder - some cables in cockpit and engine - rigging from fishing line - hollowed air inlet - tubes from syringe needle pushed into gun outlets on engine covers- masks used for red 8 number WIP: https://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=75355&hl= Boys from same family Edited June 25, 2018 by shadowmare MikeMaben, Pfuf, Alburymodeler and 32 others 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigant Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) Excellent camo scheme and the highlighting of the unusual wheel-well placement is an "eye-popper". Edited June 26, 2018 by Gigant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
