Superb Jens 👍 The kit's replication of the fabric wings looks really well done.

Hi Mike, sorry my english, I use Google Translate. Thank you for your compliment
to the model, the structure is given very good again, Russian planes had little fabric structures since very thick the paint was applied
only a dope for the fabric, then a protective lacquer and then the base colors, all applied fairly thick at the Polikarpov
as ribs and formers were recognizable, the fabric still unlikely

you should also consider where the planes were in use, the DOSAF had at any place waiting for their own gliders and powered aircraft, flight schools were central cared, the wear will be correspondingly, the Polikarpov was a workhorse
