Title: 1/72 Polikarpov I-16 Started 8 NOV 18 Finished 18 NOV 18

I decided to do something quick.

Based on the ID drawings and some other info I had.

Chose to a Type 5 . There are no gun troughs on top of cowling.
Built from the scrap box and what ever paints I had  around.


Like I said its as big as my thumb.

Cheers

Gordon

Nicely done. Are you going to add decals before I post it to the yearbook poster board?

That is pretty much it. The only thing I've left off is a numeral "1" in the yellow portion of the rudder.

I'll sort that out and post another pic.

Thank you Paul.
