Very nice build especially in this tiny scale. The I-16 looks nice in these markings. There was some low budget film made a few years ago with Bruce Willis as an American fighting in the early days of WWII with the Chinese and these planes were featured in the film.

Thanks Tom. My older brother got me interested in the Sino-Japanese war when I borrowed a book he had called The Rugged, Ragged Warriors by Martin Caidan.
