Anyone ever seen a Polikarpov in 1:32 scale?  Any of the short-nosed ugly variants would do, even in vacform.

Have an idea for one, bought a 1:48 Academy kit but never realized just how SMALL this plane must have been.

So, I would now prefer to use a 1:32 kit for my intended mods and depict it as though it was really a 1:48 bird.

Anyone...?

Many thanks, Ollie!  Good reminder that I should stop relying on Evil-Bay as a way of checking what was kitted or not!

Order placed for the Azur version (I sure liked their D.520 and the review of this one looked as promising).

Can't wait----can't wait!   :D

Although not 1/32 scale, the Eduard 1/48 I-16 serie 24 is fantastic.


Tiny critters aren't they.

Daryl J. thinking they're about the size of "Cars' " lightning bugs....
