Administrators JeroenPeters Posted July 3, 2013 Administrators Posted July 3, 2013 Hi guys, Even though rigging the Dh9a is a lot of fun I started thinking of my next project. This will be the Special Hobby I-16. But without paint. Showing the materials it was made off. Wood, linen, aluminium and putty. I'm using: • Fab Resin wheels • Renaissance model resin cockpit • Vector resin engine and cowling (full engine set) This is what I found online so far: If anyone has any info.... please share! What i still need to get is the Renaissance models ailerons and rudder set. And some Uschi wood grain decals ofcourse! Cheers, Jeroen 4
Jamme Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Wow......... That will be nice!!!!!! Taking a seat Cheers, Jamme 1

Administrators James H Posted July 3, 2013 Administrators Posted July 3, 2013 Awesome! THIS I like very much. I'll try to sort you with the extra info you need. There's something about these sort of builds which is real appealing. 1
Wingco57 Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 You mean naked aircraft? Must be a psychological thing Cees 1

Actually I need Uschi wood decals. But i also need some old prop lozenge. Just need to check if the Rumpler had 4 or 5 colour lozenge.... hmmm I'll just order the Wood decals right now from Arrow!

Johann Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Hey Johann, have any similar wealth of knowledge for the MiG-3? I've got basics, but the layout of the wood on the wings and aft fuselage is basically a giant mass of tan in the references I've got. Yes, there is, but then do not forget that the MiG-3 LaGG-3 and Yak-1 okleivayut percale wood pieces and covered with a layer of lacquer
Grant Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Wow Johann ... I know where I'm going to ask for information from now!! You've some extraordinary information to hand. Wow.
Grant Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Order placed! Order processed and in the post already !! I'm keen to see this get going.
Johann Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Thanks Johann - it's exactly the areas labelled "plywood" that I'm curious about, since there's no way they were just one-piece slabs of plywood. I've got enough of a hint of what's going on on the wings I think (see the thread HERE), but the images I've found of the fuselage are in no way helpful since it looks like the plywood's already been covered. Jeroen - sorry to threadjack! You are interested in is the location of toolbars?
