Tail needs to be 3mm taller. And the testors piece is too slim so doesn’t fit. And has a shape issue. So probably be bet...

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Welcome and thanks for your motivating words @Alec . First time I use something 3D printed and until now I enjoy it ☺️
25 February, 16:41
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Welcome @Nicolas, @ Rui and @DerMattes - thanks for your interest in this build 😊
26 February, 14:59
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)A small update here ... engine took my a while to get fitted in the fuselage. Didn´t work precisely enough so I got paid off when I tried to put the engine in. Anyway I solved it somehow without any major visible impact.
11 March, 20:42
RuiI gotta. say that I really appreciated there build posts that people share; its a real treat to see a bunch of plastic and such come together into a masterpiece! I learn so much from watchings.
11 March, 23:46
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Welcome @Skyhiker - thanks for your interest on this build @Rui thanks for your kind words, even if I don´t think that anybody can learn much from my work .... but this is exactly what this stunning community is for ... I learned so much from people´s builds here ...
12 March, 08:09
Alec KGlad you solved the hurdle. Any ideas why the engine did not fit, or what the issue was?
12 March, 12:37
Bruce Huxtable1:72? I would have trouble with those tiny PE part of it were 1:32!! Well done on your precise work.
12 March, 13:04
J35JGreat work Thomas!
Really impressed of your clean build and how you apply thiny amount of glue on all delicate small PE parts without creating a mess.
12 March, 13:16
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)thank you all for your kind words - I really appreciate that and this motivates me to constantly push myself out of the comfort zone .... thanks thanks thanks!!!! @Neuling: I know your skills so I´m really glad you came around my build: the answer is patience and a glass of good wine 😆 @Alec: as you can see the engine comes in a lot of tine parts and I didn´t pay enough attention when removing the print support and grinding the parts down properly. This resulted in a too long engine assembly. Lucky my I always spend a lot of time on dry-fits so I recognized it before starting to glue it in. Almost complete front end is made of printed parts and slightest deviations result that engine cowlings won´t fit together. Not a must to have them completely align when you show them open but I want to paint the all in one and then open the cowlings once done ...
12 March, 17:59
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)@Neuling … who drinks beer in glasses? 😂 but I guess it will work
12 March, 21:02
Trez MackenzieWhat was the cause of engine fitting? I have just got the engine pack. Any advice?
Ah, I read your previous post. It seems that most folk seem to buy these things as an aesthetic object so hats off for taking this on!
4 April, 15:39
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)@Trez: as you may have seen in previous comments, the most important thing is to really carefully sand all components down. Tend to say do a little more. There are many components coming together (assembled engine itself, manually modified fuselage, printed cowlings, ... ) and should fit properly in the end to avoid any gaps or twists in the final assembly. I think it would be tricky even in bigger scale. 1/72 scale has no mercy in this complex assembly of the plane front end. I managed it, but didn´t upload any pictures here so stay tuned 😊
5 April, 06:28
Sergej IFollowing! 👍, great job with cockpit and engine so far.
I have the exact same setup for an F-8 Würger in the shelf 🙂
5 April, 06:38
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)@Trez: I will share some when I´m back - currently traveling and far away from my bench. @Sergej: thanks for your positive feedback, I hope my experiences on this build help to make yours a little bit more straight forward 😆
5 April, 17:28
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)After a longer break on this I was finally able to restart on this build. Main engine components placed in fuselage, rivets added (as much as possible on this scale) and hydraulic tubes adde to landing gear. Now a bit of tedious work ... sanding and preparation for primer. Not much but in tricky places.
25 June, 19:39
Frank BrzobohatyGreat job, not the easiest in 1:72 scale is it Thomas? but it is rewarding when completed!
26 June, 16:21
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Thanks @Frank!! Indeed it was a challange, especially when working with these resin parts for the first time. But as you say, I hope it will be rewarding once the Würger is done 🤷♂️
26 June, 18:03
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Thanks @Jürgen. Working on the main paints already … German camouflage in 1/72 is a challenge 🤣
14 July, 07:03
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Many thanks @Shar! Appreciate it. I used the one and only (for me) Mr. Surfacer 1500.
14 July, 08:09
Shar DipreeYes, I like to use that too (Mr. Surfacer ). What gun, nozzle size and pressure do you spray with?
14 July, 08:18
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Good choice 👍 I apply the primer with a H&S Evolution, 0.4mm nozzle and about 1-1.2bar pressure. Thinning ratio about 40/60
14 July, 13:38
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Last weeks I was fighting ... fighting with myself to keep this model from trashing it. Almost by accident I learned that I planned to build it not historically correct. This plane didn't have cowling MG's, but everything was planned to display them. So I had to make a decision and decided to go historical correct and change parts on an almost completely painted model.
It was a fight in 1/72 ... some imperfections I successfully ignored in earlier building stages now payd off and made it really hard for me. It's not perfect yet and it won't be perfect ever, but I have some ideas to improve the remaining imperfections.
Definitely not a competition model anymore...
22 August, 07:22
Trez MackenzieThe one thing that is always gained is experience. That will come in handy for the next build and so on!
I would encourage you to get this bird over the finish line! 🫡
22 August, 08:19
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)@Trez: fully agree - and from this build I learned A LOT … I will finish this build for sure … some small corrections on misleading edges to be done and then I can go on with touch ups and clear coat to let the fun begin - decals and weathering 💪
22 August, 13:56
SkyhikerThis kit looks pretty decent. It seems a lot better than the Revell kit. Were there any problem areas?
22 August, 14:30
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)The eduard kit is close to perfection - all issues I had were selfmade. The only concern, but a really small one is the orientation of the langing gear bay components. You have to be careful and put the parts together carefully almost by eye. If you dont put them in exact position it will lead to gaps between upper wing and fuselage (at least on one side). There could be better positioning. But nothing to worry ir you work precisely
22 August, 16:44
Juergen KlinglhuberGo for it. We all are exited to see it passing the finish line despite all issues. 👍

JohnNice paintwork. Colors look good, I wouldn't worry that's an issue. Can always change the tone with a wash anyway. 👍
28 January 2023, 18:41
TV_scalemodelsThanks! Yes that is very true. I think after the weathering I don't see the original colours too much..
28 January 2023, 19:25
DanielA true legend! awesome painting, the chipping is just perfectly made for this particular jet, (not an easy task, theres a thin line between realistic used look and repainting the whole thing...)
19 March 2023, 16:41
Shar DipreeExtremly nice and awesome details (overpainted insignia for example). Excelent. I'm curious how the phantom will look like in the end.
Is there a photo that you use as a reference?
19 March 2023, 16:53
TV_scalemodelsThanks for the comments!
Weathering was interesting, it is always difficult to balance realistic and nice looking. I'm glad you like it!
I used pics on the Internet and excellent fundecals instruction
for reference. And my books of course too.
Some sites:

Shar DipreeThanks for the links.
I think the weathering has become great. The aircrafts were partly very weathered during the war.
27 March 2023, 16:15
James CStunning looking F-4! 👍
I keep saying to myself that THIS will be the year that I pull my finger out and build one; but it never eventuates. This build has definitely renewed my desire to finally do it. 😉
27 March 2023, 16:26
Bruce HuxtableWall to wall stencils, but your scratch building skills and eye for the painting and weathering are awesome. Wow!

CaptGPFPhenomenal build! The step by step video is instructional and very well made. Only word I can use is inspirational!
24 August, 14:01
T BerVery great job done here : additional details, painting… Just awesome.
May I ask you why you also weathered the missiles ? On a real jet, if the machine is used and dirty, the munitions are usually brand news, so…
1 September, 19:40
Gary VictoryReally Really nice build and finish. Love the weathering, looks spot on to me..! Top Job.
2 September, 06:39
TV_scalemodelsT Ber: Thanks! Missiles are not massively weathered, just some panel line wash, maybe a little bit of pre-shading, that's all. Drop tanks are weathered however as they seemed to be used multiple times, not dropped in every mission according to my references.
Thanks Gary Victory and Neuling!
2 September, 16:04
TV_scalemodelsThanks J35J!
I wonder are Phantoms popular in broader spectrum? I understand that they were wide spread across the globe and long in service. In that regard for example Viper (F-16) is even more popular.. Just thinking..

Juergen KlinglhuberStarted this one.
The Ju 86 which were seen in 2 different Austrian markings, but at the end was never part of the Airforce. Here the overall silver Ju86 #311 at the airshow in Vienna-Aspern in early 1937.
2 June, 11:10
Juergen KlinglhuberThe mention aircraft was sent to the Airshow in Aspern as a "demonstrator" in austrian marking. Austria was interessed in buying 18 Ju86K-7. Due to several reasons Junkers was not prepared for that airshow and on short note removed the markings of an 86K-2 that was already prepared to be sold to Sweden. They put on austrian markings, a service number #311 and flew it over to Austria for just this one day. Flight captain Behrendt did a good job and the aerobatic air-display was a great success. So far so good. Why I am telling this? 86-K2 is a differend engine and cowling. The box is a 86E1/2. Aftermarket conversion products are out there (Kora) .....I had difficulties to locate/buy some.
Therefore: it is Scratchbuilding time again !!! 😎
5 June, 18:16
Juergen Klinglhuberthx Alec &Lukasz for you very kind support 👍 - appreciated.
But the first cuts are already done - no way back now 😉
(and I have to odmit: usually I like it to test my skills by a DIY task every now and then)
5 June, 18:51
Stefan FraundorferAh, a new and very interesting project. Of course I will follow that. Have fun with the Ju 86 Jürgen.
15 June, 07:23
Juergen KlinglhuberI have finished the modification on the engine resp. cowling. Some new pic's up-loaded.
23 June, 15:27
Roland SachsenhoferVery interesting and extremely promising! We talked about it in Ried, and now I'm delighted to see these ideas being realised in such an impressive way!
23 June, 15:30
TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)Nice progress Jürgen! I´m in to see how this beauty comes together 👍
24 June, 14:07
Juergen KlinglhuberThank you mates for leaving your nice comments.Iam wWorking on the exhaust pipe currently. New picture up-date should be ready after this coming weekend.
3 July, 17:07
Juergen KlinglhuberAll mod's are completted now - after adding the windows of the cockpit I can move it to the paint hangar.
13 July, 20:27
Juergen KlinglhuberHey - thank you Roland for your feedback. That gives motivation of course 🙂
14 July, 16:01
Roland SachsenhoferThat's great, that's how it should be, because your construction progress here gives me inspiration 🙂
14 July, 17:20
Juergen KlinglhuberThank you Alec, Thomas & Cuajete. When I had finished I thought: "Grab, overdone. This bird was for sure not that worn as it went to the airshow more or less fresh from the manufacturer." But the more looked at it the more I was okay with the result. So your comments are welcome and soothe my concerns. 👍
9 August, 16:22
NicolasDon't worry Juergen, even on new airplanes there are sometimes clear visual differences in the sheet metal. For example, some manufacturers deburr the rivet holes with a grinding machine, the sheets are made of different alloys or are applied with different rolling directions, all of which have an influence on the appearance. I like it.
9 August, 19:16
Juergen KlinglhuberA very big "Thank You" to everyone for your positive feedback. My stash still contains of further bare metal birds - this comments give definitively good motivation. 👍
cheers.
19 August, 05:56
Roland SachsenhoferA really great and very nice result, Jürgen - I think your whole project is really worth seeing - I also like the photos very much! Congratulations!
19 August, 14:07
Juergen KlinglhuberMany Thanks gorby, Bernd, Neuling & Roland. Much appriciated comments 🙂
20 August, 16:37
Juergen KlinglhuberThx bughunter - I am looking forward to bring back on the bench my #2 Ju86 in a camo scheme...
