Troy Molitor Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I have two Silver wings example but I have to tell you. The ICM I-153 almost built itself in a couple evening sessions. If it fits like the I-153 I can only imagine the Gladiator will sell. Such a cool looking aircraft. Can’t wait for this one too. ICM if your listening, there are some Russian WWII aircraft we’re really looking forward to seeing in injected moldings.

Pup7309 Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Looking forward to this one. No howlers on the CAD. I hope they (or someone else) do a Lysander next... MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagemusha Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 I wonder if the masks give an indication of the decal options provided with the kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennismcc Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Great looking masks, certainly some attractive schemes there Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly but I seriously doubt so many different schemes will be included in the first release. Looking at prior ICM releases it is obvious they will milk the cow with multiple boxings: RAF Gladiators, Sea Gladiators, Gladiators in the North with skis, other foreign versions, etc. Kagemusha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmayhew Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 it does look pretty cool but i really would hoped for a more creative solution to the wing spars they are all separate with no underlying structure providing automatic alignment and fit that will make a for a pretty precarious addition of the top wing onto the kit no? it's giving me shivers thinking of old Matchbox and Airfix biplanes i built in 1/72 when I was a kid - in many many kits and possibly a hundred plus spars, I don't think a single one was actually in proper alignment Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to work well, even when the outer wing struts dont have much to hold onto, and/or they are not connected for support. Its super simple, and normally when used it perfectly aligns the two wings without doing much of anything, except setting the model down on the box. Just have to use a very stout glue or epoxy for the most strength. Jan_G and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking this morning, would love for them to tackle other Soviet subjects in 1/32... a La-5/7, Lagg-3 series, and....gasp.... a Pe-2. They are indeed putting out some great stuff lately. And if we keep buying it, they will keep making more stuff. - Dennis S. Thornton, CO USA esarmstrong and RadBaron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
