Johnson Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Looks pretty good Adrian (I admit to knowing nothing about Polykarpov I-16s). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianMF Posted May 23, 2020 Author Share Posted May 23, 2020 Well I’ve got the colours on: Have to be downstairs now for an hour or two but should get this wrapped up later tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianMF Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 And finished: There was a bit of excitement when I gave it a final wipe and one of the stars came off in a crumpled mess on the tissue! Luckily it smoothed out and stuck back on OK. Thanks for a fun GB! Now I can have a look at all the other builds going on! Thanks for looking, Adrian 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t have got there without using superglue to get an instant bond on the lower wing section while holding it in places it didn’t want to go in! Also Acrylic putty filled all the gaps in those removable side panels. I applied it with a cocktail stick and wiped off the excess before it was fully dry with a damp old paintbrush, so I didn’t need to sand. 3 hours ago, Adrian Hills said: From one Adrian to another.

helios16v Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 That turned out quite tidy for a quickie build. And you had a lot more pieces to deal with than I did! I'm still plugging away...just under 4 hours left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
