Polikarpov I-153 Chaika, in 1/50, by Gerard Methorst

[Vinalssergio155]

Greetings.My new project of the designs of Gerard, the little Chaika.
I have great attraction for Russian airplanes, and especially this one in particular, although Gerard did it with Finnish brands.
First stage, fuselage.
I should tell you that this little one gives enough work.
Gerard made a magnificent design because everything fits great, but still you have to work a lot.
In certain parts I did my process of "reengineering" as Michael says, by the way I miss him around here.This I did to feel more comfortable. Several formers leave on the road. I think so far the result is good.

Wings and tails. Here you also have to work, everything fits very well, but you have to be careful when aligning.
Everything that remains will be easier.
Thank you very much.

VERY nice Sergio. I'm with you in being a fan of this particular Russian plane. In fact I like the whole I-15 series (along with the earlier I-5) but this retractable landing gear version is the most interesting one.

Very impressive, Sergio. I do love the job you did on the front cowling. Nice indeed.
