I-152, a noob project

I’ve been looking for a tool to render aircraft for a while. Seeing Alvaro’s I-16 (https://blenderartists.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27311&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30) I decided to gve it a go. The I-152 is an earlier model design by the same designer (Polikarpov) as that I-16.

This is my first blender project, after a few tutorials.
