Time to resume modeling after two weeks that were very hard...

I will build for review the I-16 Type 10 from Eduard. At first regard, the content of the box is gorgeous...

It is time now to resume the work on those nice I-16... I will give priority to that combo build now.

First, as the plan shows the half fuselage inverted on the first page, to avoid any mistake I've numbered the half fuselages with a marker...
I have placed the photoetch elements inside the fuselage, and the exhausts - For the exhausts it was not so easy to place, but no real problem anyway.
In the process I've lost a tiny PE element; fortunately the part existed in injected so for one aircraft I've used that one instead.

...Naturally, having finished the work for today, I've found the lost element on my work table...  :-evil

Yes I'm back, and really sorry to have delayed that build for so long time... My goal is to finish all the build I have to make for Eduard kit review before the end of the year!!!

Cockpit elements are removed from sprue. I've also glued the wings, guns and pitot tube...

I am anxious to see how your fuselage halves fit together. My (much older) kit gave me a little work to do in that operation. They're moving along nicely!

Well Scott, half fuselages seem to fit well together (trials are satisfying me)...

Little progress today... PE is glued.
