Here’s the latest on my Imam Ro.37, decals on, they were very thin and delicate, should have masked the tailfin cross and painted it as the decals tore up a bit and I had to touch up anyway. upper wing still not glued as I want to do some light weathering first while |I can still access everything.

Nice choice, Bill…

That kit looks really old???

My Polikarpov R-5 is geting in shape. Prop blades wer poorly moulded and to short so i made them from 1mm styreen sheet. To mount them in a correct alignment the jig was made.


Cowling was way off so…




Last job was to adress exhaust pipes openings on both sides of the fuselage.

Cheers!

Looks like a lot of work Primoz! Well, i am calling my Classic Airframes Iman Ro.37 bis complete, still trying to decide if I want to go to the trouble of rigging it. A bit of a bear of a kit, poor fit, non-existent locating pins and frustrating photoetch.
