Rodrant's Eduard I-16 type 24 1/48 - Baltic Fleet version -Final reveal

Post by rodrant »

So guys here it is my build of Eduard's I-16 type 24 , baltic Fleet version , flown by Genadij Tsokolaev, 4 GIAP, Lake Ladoga in April 1941, a Navy Ace with 17 individual and 11 Shared victories , awarded with the Gold Star of the Hero of Soviet Union in June,14 1942 .

My build thread here:

http://intscalemodeller.com/viewtopic.p ... 37#p205737

I found this link for you to see (if interested) some details on the I-16 , nice site with a lot of reference photos and reference colors for Russian planes .

About the Eduard kit : Nice little kit , not too easy in some steps and some attention needed in some steps :-) , but a very nice little build and makes me wish to make at least another version of this 'RATA' (that is Rat in Spanish ...it was the nicckname for this plane in Spanish Civil War , used by Republican Forces)
Here are the photos :
