Dennis7423 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 All- Here she is, all done! This is the ICM 1/32 I-16 Type 24, completed with Eduard interior and seatbelt selts, and Armory wheels. Paint is Vallejo acrylics, with Montex masks used to complete the markings. Weathering is a mix of an acrylic wash, Tamiya weathering pastels, and MM enamels. It was an absolute treat to build, and I highly recommend it for anyone considering one of these kits!

Troy Molitor Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I built this kit and loved every minute on it. Lovely efforts on your example Dennis. Well done. The I-153 is another awesome kit. Easiest bi plane you’ll ever build. Martinnfb, mpk and Dennis7423 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The I-153 is another awesome kit. Easiest bi plane you’ll ever build. Agreed! It was a simple kit, but super fun to build. Hard to really put my finger on it, but it was just an enjoyable build of a neat subject. Haven't had that much fun building a kit in a while. I've got the I-153 waiting in the wings. I elected to pick up the Vector set for it, so it will be a little more involved, but I am looking forward to it. Working on a few other projects before it hits the bench! - Dennis S.

ringleheim Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Beautiful work. Makes me want to tackle this kit right now! Martinnfb and Dennis7423 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davral64 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 You've done spectacular work! That thing must have been a bit of a handful to fly! And, what kind of nut toys around in Russia in an open cockpit in winter! People sure were tough back then. Martinnfb and Dennis7423 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
