Description
The same way that at the beginning of this year I had my first contact with a Special Hobby kit (1/72 CASA C-212) and the experience was not as positive as expected, so was this my first contact with an ICM kit. In fact, it was yet worse, and all down to fit issues.

In any case, ever since my childhood I felt fascinated about those between-wars biplanes powered by big ring radial engines, and the seagull-shaped upper wing of the Polikarpov I-15 'Chato' (Spanish for 'flat-nosed') added an extra appeal. If you want to see more, here you are the video on the build process: youtu.be/RmMMUhqd4BE .
