1/48 Academy Polikarpov I-16

--------------------

 

I built this one OOB, even the crappy cockpit!  Fit wasn’t too bad, its too small a model to have too much worries.  I painted her with Model Master and Humbrol enamels and thinned away some of the white top coat with a q-tip (cotton bud) and some thinners. This was to get me back into modelling, so it was done fairly quickly. I'm no photographer so sorry about the quality of the photos.  Hopefully I will start my Tu16 soon. 

Until then enjoy!
