Very nice! You do really neat work!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I made the mould for the resin cast. I made an error with the seat so that broke when I got it out of the mould. I have cut some of the rubber away to stop that from reaccuring. The rest went pretty smooth. Next up is to cast some copies. I need multiple seat for different Polikarpov’s and eight exhaust stubs so therefore I need to cast this at least for times. I hope the exhausts really stay hollow.

Everything worked like a charm ! The resin seat came out of the mould unharmed and the exhaust pipes are indeed hollow. I have made a second mould for the exhausts so I can cast everything I need in four sessions.

I started construction: the cockpit. Everything is ready for primer and painting.

The more I look at this aircraft, the more it looks like a Gee Bee on steroids. I just love those little
Polikarpov I-153. I need to get myself those Polikarpov aircraft kits.
