Lars-Owe Paetzold (Butcherbird) has sent us a build feature of his sweet little 1:48 scale Polikarpov I-16 type 29 model. This is the Eduard kit presented with Uni models' GAZ-AS-2 truck and a Mark58 display base.

Hi Lars-Owe

Very nice indeed! The new engine is definitely a huge improvement over Eduard's simple blank - and it's great to see the little GAZ starter truck builds up so nicely.

All the best

It's very nice

But it would be better if there was 2-3 figures

Cheers Nick
