Polikarpov I-16 1/72 ICM unboxing and build. (conversion to type 10)

[@montewatson9079]

Nice job! I really wish I had seen your video before I built my kit of the same aircraft. My kit had some plastic issues. The trailing edge of the top part of the left wing was very thin and slightly deformed. I could not figure out how to actually connect the exhausts to the engine to have them actually emerge from the openings like they should. I really like what you did with the cockpit interior, there were some poor color directions in the ICM instructions. I did A LOT of searching for this kit build on KZbin videos, and yours by far is the best so far.

Thank you very much, like you, I am also looking for information to build my models and there is simply no way.....it works for me to search in different scales and real photos, when they exist...at first I didn't do it but now I try to show the assembly and paint references, although I may make some mistakes. I really decided to create the channel so that in a short time I could show both the mold and the assembly, something that I myself am also looking for, I'm glad you like it, greetings and good luck with your models.

Thanks👌

Great job, nice result, cool video 👍 But unfortunately I-16 type 28 never participated in Spanish war. I-16 type 5 produced by ClearProp could be righ kit for this historical period.

Thanks, this is precisely what I tried to do, a small conversion to type 10, above all I worked on the issue of the lower exhausts, eliminating where the skies retract, I also polished the wing to make it simpler, I guess I personally found it attractive to try it, thank you for your comment.

@@buildmodels8801 really nice job 👍, thank you for clarification.

Просто молодец!Из таких древних наборов-ты делаешь классные модели!

[@buildmodels8801]

Спасибо большое, привет.

[@АндрейШмырев-ж3з]

Лучше этого набора все равно нет.Есть конечно ,клеар проп,...но там ранний тип.😊

[@buildmodels8801]

Да, мне понравилась его конструкция, несмотря на размер, она имеет множество деталей, включая полный двигатель.👌
