My first Model : Polikarpov I-16 type 10 1/48 Eduard
« on: May 17, 2008, 11:04:10 AM »
Run Kilian Run.... to the toy store  :-green

Alright i will buy some tools now. A tweezers i have, a sharp knive (maybe thats not good to cut the plastic parts?). What i need to buy: glue, putty, colors, sandpaper. Colors i will buy probably in the internet or i will have to do it with revell colors. Anything i forgot?

Its perfect to start it. Bad weather came this night and its all dark outside.

Great mate  :-ok You need cutter one general use and one like for the surgery for precise trimming. I suggest you to use glue in tube for first time and you have Contacta there. Revell color are the best I have ever use and please wait a little bit to make a list of color need for this kit.

Sandpaper need are- 320 grit, 600 grit, 800 grit, 1500 grit and 2500 grit.

And yes, you forget to take a beer and some good music to play  ;)

E 4 and E 29 are parts located inside the cockpit and I think they are some kind of throttle control or something like that.
You need do color those parts and thats it
Watch out for parts E 13 and E 5 they can't stand on the place they should cause the cockpit floor can't fit then so you need to test fit before you glue your parts.
I think you can see that on the photos on my I-16 topic  :-wave
Hope I have been of some assistance

first cut the decal you need and dip it in a pot with warm water for 15-30 sec and then gently with your finger slide it on the surface you need to apply it ,position it and pres it with some cotton fabric (I use old T-shirt or cotton picks for cleaning ears ).The process is the same for all decals

...i think the eduards building manual is not very logic in one point. I would have first fitted the pilots seat before the instrument panel. I will stop at this point. I will need to buy colors for the seat :)
