Aftermarket for ICM 1/48 I-16 Type 24 (48097) ?
Posted by KyleBragger on Friday, March 2, 2018 3:03 PM

Anyone aware of any cockpit PE, panels and belts and the like, for the ICM 1/48 I-16 Type 24 (48097) kit? 

 

I've built Eduard's version which comes in a Profipack if I recall, but for ICM's new (2016) tooling, I'm not finding much of anything as far as photoetch goes. Their cockpit is quite peculiar as it has a sandwich of clear for IP faces and solid plastic for the IP itself but lacks any decals or otherwise.

Alternatively I might try to just use some Luftwaffe dials from Airscale or something like that.

The only thing i could find for that kit was a set of masks. There is a CMK resin pit and Kuivalainen PE set, both for the Eduard kit, but they might work on yours.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Roll Models has a bunch of I-16 stuff that you could make work in your ICM kit.

Check for what works for the Hobbycraft kits.  Mark Buchler used to make update resin parts for them.  Here's a link to his websdite, don't know if he can still supply them.

Great - thanks for all the replies so far. May see if I can fit the Eduard set.
