Dannie Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Here's ICM's 1/48 scale Po-2 completed recently. Painted with Tamiya Acrylics for the uppers, Italeri RLM-65 for the unders, and some Vallejo metallics for the engine and machine gun. Built out of the box, with only the MG sights replaced with some PE scraps, some basic engine wiring added and seat belts added to the excellent ICMs offering. Rigged with elastic thread, after assembly and painting. Assembly was trouble free, and even the struts aligned with their locator holes properly. Replaced the kit provided ordnance with some from the ICMs I-153, just so. Kit decals used over painted IPs, with liberal application of Mr. Softer. The end result looks rather convincing. 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k5054nz Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Beautiful job! I really like that camo on the Po.2, and the (patriotic?) slogans on the side really make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannie Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Thank you all. Slogans are calling for vengeance for the fellow female pilots. But yes they do add to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
