These pictures start a build that gives me my first experience with 'Clear Prop' - and they are good ones! The fineness of the shapes, the accuracy of fit and the meaningfulness of the construction steps seem to combine to create a pleasurable building experience!
This plane is also highly interesting: originally derived as a drone for shooting practice from a small civilian predecessor model, hundreds were pulverised in the air. Some of those that survived this use went on to have an amazing career as light sports aircraft and enjoyed great popularity in the 1940s.

Oh, a brand new kit?
It is hard to keep track all your parallel running builds! You speed of building all those birds is simply unbelievable and a great mystery to me!

Robert Podkoński
I have the same impressions as Bughunter, frankly speaking 🙂 Following this build for sure.

Michael Kohl
Me too

Hello mates! How nice that this small but lovely project has your interest and positive feedback! Indeed, a brand new kit that immediately caught my interest when I stumbled across it - so it ended up on the workbench straight away.
To answer the question about the current density of my projects: on the one hand, I sometimes wonder myself 🙂 On the other hand, I suspect that it has something to do with running three or four, maybe even five (at the moment, for example) projects in parallel . Something is 'always' being finished or started.

I made the following preparations for the bright red of the final surface: first I applied yellow followed by a layer of white to the model. After drying, I sanded this base, which should make the following red "glow", with 1000, 1200 and 2000 grit sandpaper to make the colour layers more transparent again, to get a smooth surface and to find any flaws - you can see a few exposed on the fuselage and tail unit. I am surprised by the very high quality of the kit and look forward to finishing it!

It looks like the Culver PQ-14 is ready! This was a most enjoyable project from start to finish. I am delighted with my first "clear prop" kit and I enjoyed the unusual history of the original. I made the seat belts and the aerial wiring, everything else can be found in the beautifully finished kit.
Thank you for your interest and your helpful and motivating comments!

Started 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.

Hello mates and thank you for your interest!

The 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 !!! 😎

Welcome Guy

Alec K
Nice progress. Modelimex is a place to get the Kora parts from, just in case 👍

Łukasz Gliński
There's one set here 😛

Good explanation, Juergen 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
thx 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)

Bernd Grün
An Austrian Ju 86, I'm in! Nice start, Jürgen! 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
Hi Bernd! thx

J35J
Great start! Watching with intrest.

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thank you and welcome J35J.

Stefan Fraundorfer
Ah, a new and very interesting project. Of course I will follow that. Have fun with the Ju 86 Jürgen.

Juergen Klinglhuber
Welcome aboard Stefan!

Juergen Klinglhuber
I have finished the modification on the engine resp. cowling. Some new pic's up-loaded.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Very 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!

Juergen Klinglhuber
🙏 Thx alot Roland, I am happy to receive your appreciation.

Nicolas
I'm joining this interesting build.

Łukasz Gliński
Impressive rework of the engines 👍

Alec K
I agree, looks very good 👍

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
Nice progress Jürgen! I´m in to see how this beauty comes together 👍

Cuajete
Fantastic mods, 👌

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thank 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.

Juergen Klinglhuber
All mod's are completted now - after adding the windows of the cockpit I can move it to the paint hangar.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Looks beautiful, clean and masterly done!

Juergen Klinglhuber
Hey - thank you Roland for your feedback. That gives motivation of course 🙂

Roland Sachsenhofer
That's great, that's how it should be, because your construction progress here gives me inspiration 🙂

Juergen Klinglhuber
Ju86 just left the paint hangar,...
