About product

Decals for the Polikarpov I-16

A decal sheet in 1:72 scale to complete a model of the Soviet Polikarpov I-16 fighter. The subject points to the Soviet fighter pilots for whom period propaganda coined the term Stalin's Falcons, and to the aircraft they went to war with.

The real subject

The I-16 was an uncommonly modern machine for its day: a cantilever low-wing monoplane with retractable landing gear, which in the middle of the 1930s was still far from the rule. Its fuselage was wooden, short and barrel-shaped in form, with a radial engine at the front. The stocky silhouette earned it the nickname Rata, which its opponents in Spain gave it and which then stayed with it. The very short fuselage also meant sensitive controls, so the I-16 counted as a machine that was agile and difficult at the same time.

How to apply the decals

  • Prepare the surface with gloss varnish; on matte paint there is a risk of silvering under the film.
  • Cut the subject out close to the edge and dip it briefly in lukewarm water.
  • Once it releases from the paper, move the decal onto the model and settle it with a brush as you go.
  • A decal softener will help the film cling to the fabric covering and to small raised details.
  • Seal the dried decal with matte varnish so that the edges blend into the surface.

What the delivery contains

This is a decal sheet on its own, that is an accessory for a kit. The aircraft model, the paints, the varnishes and the decal softener are not included in the delivery, unless stated otherwise. The manufacturer's instructions give the exact placing of each subject.

FAQ

For the Polikarpov I-16 fighter in 1:72 scale. The name does not name a particular kit, so check the placing of the subjects against your own model using the instructions.

Spanish for rat. The nickname was given to the aircraft by its opponents during the Spanish Civil War, after its short and stocky fuselage, and the term then caught on elsewhere too.

You cut them out, dip them briefly in lukewarm water and move them onto the model once they release from the backing paper. A decal softener supports adhesion in broken places.

No, this is a decal sheet on its own. The model, the paints and the decal softener are not included, unless stated otherwise.
