Very good small scale dio!

Mid Franconian
I agree! I specially like the attention to all the small details (the chain, the tools etc.). How was the ACE kit?

Randy Kriegel
This was my first Ace Model. It is a very highly detailed kit. My opinion, it is definitely not a kit for a novice. No PE included. but lots of very small delicate parts. To me this kit almost had detail of a 1/35 model. Directions were a little sketchy, but I've seen a lot worse. I took my time, and this was a very satisfying build. I have 4 more in my stash looking forward to building them.

Great work allround (👍

Mid Franconian

Dave Flitton

It's actually better than I expected it to be.

Nice weathering!

Neuling
Looks very good! More pictures and infos would be welcome!

Denis Dogadov
There are really very few photos.
I liked the coloring, but there are questions about the technical part.
The ski holes on the lower surface of the engine hood were not supposed to be blind - they did not have a front wall, and these holes served to release cooling air.
There were transparent windows in the domes of the chassis niches.There were also landing flaps from below, which need to be more clearly highlighted

great job. i would suggest to create a project and link this beauty to it, so it gets the right visibility.
@Denis, those seem to be flaws in the model itself, right?

Denis Dogadov
Yes, I agree, you can always refer to the shortcomings of the model itself, but the end result is always on the modeler's conscience.
There are a lot more flaws in the model, but I did not bring them all, because in general I liked the work.
I only wanted someone else to see it and use it in their work.

Spanjaard
please let me know the details, i have an (Eduard) I-16 i intend to build, an I am certainly interested in any flaws it may have. I am sure I will add some of my own, but it is good to know the ones the kit itself has 😉

Denis Dogadov
Here is a well-made model (Eduard)-
