Ludvík KružíkJakub, the construction progress so far looks very good.
Maybe you'll find a liking in WWI models. 😉
18 August, 22:35
Jakub FialaThank you, mates!
Ludvíku, i must say, that i am enjoing it so far. But there will be more challenges later( riggings, lozenge....) So, i will see. But i believe, that WWII will remains my priority 🙂
19 August, 12:11
bughunterI'm a bit late in commenting do to my holiday - nice work so far!
Since there are some pitfalls: do you want a fun build or should it be correct?
Which specific serial do you plan to build?
21 August, 10:03
Jakub FialaThank you, Frank!
I want to build 8244/17 of Jasta 54. This marking is, according Eduard instructions, just a reconstruction based on the description in the flight log, revealed in the Jasta Color book. So, in my opinion it will be difficult to buid it 100% correct 🙂 However, I will of course be grateful for any advice and recommendations
21 August, 18:10
bughunterOk, on a Pfalz D.IIIa the engine is different. The very simplified Eduard (the pipe work on the lower end of the cylinders is the water, what you have painted dark red - but this is not much visible later) engine shows a older 160hp Mercedes D.III. This is especially shown by the valve train, which can be seen on top of the engine.
Two bolts on top, and the valve in the middle: [img1]
The later 185hp Mercedes D.IIIa was also available for some Pfalz D.III, and nearly all of Pfalz D.IIIa pictures shows this stronger version. The drawings I know too. The engine is a little bit bigger, but the valve train looks very different - four bolts and the valves rockers comes out of the side:
[img1]
Roden has a better representation of this engine (same sprue on all kits), and it is also more correct in size. That means I cannot get it into this model 🙁
No worries mate, only an expert will notice on the finished model 🙂
And regarding the wings: I strongly recommend Aviattic decals. The ones printed on clear paper (normal) and the ones printed on white for rib tapes. Or you use the Eduard rib tapes. I have some build logs explaining the usage.
30 August, 15:56
Jakub FialaThank you very much, Frank, for your help!
While going through the photos and drawings of the engines, I noticed that each type is different, but I was quite confused as to which engine was the right one. In the end I didn't deal with it and just tried to scratchbuild some visible details that are missing from the kit. For example the air pump, pipes and hoses leading from the radiator on the upper wing etc. I use the WnW manual and kit ( borrowed from a friend of mine) as the main source of information 🙂
Thanks for the advice on decals. I'll try to get the Aviattic ones. But I don't know if it will be easier for me to use the lozenge decals from the kit, which are already prepared in the shape of a wing. I will see...
3 September, 10:21
Jakub FialaThank you, Alec! I hope I won't disappoint you 🙂
Welcome here, Michael.
5 September, 12:34
bughunterYes, the WNW manuals are a good source! You can download the manuals as PDF, the web site is still available.
But I suggest to download all what you need (also for other projects) soon. The site was away for a while already and I heard rumors that it was paid then for some additional time only.
For the Linux users among us, I suggest using "wget" with the recursive option so you can get all the PDFs, reference images and more to your hard drive without making millions of clicks,
5 September, 13:39
Jakub FialaI heard the same, bughunter. Nobody knows, how long the WnW site will be available.
19 September, 12:05
Jakub FialaI added a few external details from PE, Evergreen, and my favourite plastic yogurt container 🙂
The fuselage with lower wing is almost ready to paint.
19 September, 12:12
Alec KSuperb progress Jakube. The tail skid looks very authentic, as do the rigging buckles 👍
19 October, 17:31
Ludvík KružíkJakub, you're doing a good job. All the detail you put into it looks very good and adds credibility to the model. 👍
26 October, 09:16
Jakub FialaI sprayed the colors on the fuselage and applied the first layer of lozenge decal from Eduard. Unfortunately, I could not find those from Aviattic at any of the e-shops. I have to admit I'm too lazy to order them directly from the UK manufacturer 🙂
7 November, 11:06
Mark SherwoodThe Pfalz is looking good Jakub, despite the mishaps. I have had similar problems, even though I de-tacked the tape. Still it looks like it's coming good. 🤘🥸🤟
7 November, 12:50
Mr DLooking great... Definitely a future model for me, lve not built an Eduard yet.
Good luck with next steps 😀👍
7 November, 15:16
Ludvík KružíkAccidents like this always hurt. But you did a great job fixing it.
What manufacturer did you use for the lozenge decals?
7 November, 22:33
Jakub FialaThank you, mates!
As you wrote, these masking troubles sometimes happens. Luckily, this one was easy to fix.
Ludvíku, lozenge decals are Eduard. It´s in my previous comment, with an explanation why 🙂
Alec, the silver paint is Tamiya LP-11. I would say, it´s very similar to a "classic" gunze C-8
8 November, 09:34
bughunterGood progress 👍 When I saw picture 31, my first thought was "Nice weathering!" 😉
I once read that almost all liquid masking agents are based on latex, and that needs ammonia as a thinner to keep it liquid. But ammonia also attacks acrylic paints 🙁

Tom ...Brilliant as usual! The photo taking is brilliant as well! Particularly love the tank damage.
28 January 2019, 16:22
Bob HallWOW ! That brings back Memories ! Spot on with the Chocolate Chip DCU's, Awesome work !
28 January 2019, 20:24
NeulingThank you mates! Robert, can you share your memories and explain the Chocolate Chip DCUs? Danke Thomas, sorry to say that for dramatic reasons the tank damage was inevitable.
30 January 2019, 06:55
Arne GreveI like it! On the one side the destroyed iraqie Tank with the US Boys and on the other side the british Tank. Really good!
30 January 2019, 07:56
SpanjaardSo damn realistic that you can take some of the pictures as reference pics of the real deal. standing in awe in front of the pics. respect!
30 January 2019, 23:02
Bob HallI was a Calvary Scout when I first joined the Army, I was assigned to the 2nd ACR in September of 1990 Then in February of 91 is when we invaded from Saudi into Iraq. it was the tankers that were involved in the Battle of 73 Eastings. I wasn't in the battle, but I saw the after math of of what the M1 was doing to the Iraqi Tanks. Literally the turrets would "POP"off the chassis because Russian Tank turrets are held in place by gravity. The DCU is the Army name for "DESERT COMBAT UNIFORM" it was the first desert uniform we had and because of the little black dots on the uniform it got the nick name of the Chocolate Chip pattern,which got phased out a few years later around 92-93 in favor of the Tri-Color DCU we had in Iraq you may have seen us wear between 03-06. So there is my memory's and the DCU definition. Thanks for a great Dio !
31 January 2019, 03:27
NeulingThank you Ingo, Arne, Jan, Spanjaard, Robert and Timothy! Robert`s info is very interesting and I am honored that a participant of operation Desert Storm likes my diorama.
31 January 2019, 18:02
NeulingThank you Zsolt and Richmond for your interest in and appreciation of my diorama.
14 February 2019, 23:18
Michael PhillipsThis is really just an amazing diorama... That damaged area on the Iraqi tank is simply outstanding. Bravo!!!!
15 February 2019, 14:58
Jean-Michel TilquinIncredibly realistic! Everything, the tanks, the figures, the dio... You are an inspiration for sure!
16 February 2019, 07:22
NeulingThank you all mates! German modeler, Tom, Xerxes, Michael and Andreas, the tank damage was inspired by photos in the book "Desert storm ground war" by Jim Mesko. Michael, the three GI figures are from Verlinden Productions.
16 February 2019, 17:39
NigelA superb diorama; something to inspire, and aspire to!
I applaud your bravery, and skill, in wrecking the T-62. I'm not sure that I could bring myself to do that.😉
21 February 2019, 07:27
NeulingThank you Nigel! The tank damage was a must in this diorama, but I conceived that the Iraqi crew had left the tank before it was hit by the Hellfire missile.
21 February 2019, 20:00
Bob HallThis is how I remember them ! LOL !

Roland SachsenhoferYou have an incredible talent to stage these ingeniously built models in atmospheric dioramas! It's more than amazing, it's brilliant!
22 February 2019, 11:43
NigelRobert: that's one way of showing off those otherwise invisible interiors!😉 👍
22 February 2019, 13:24
Bob Hall@Nigel-Yeah ! was like a T-62 Convertible ! but then we told not to get to close the ones that were taken out by A-10's, some were radioactive from the depleted uranium rounds that destroyed them. Funny thing too was when I went back in 03 and two other deployments, there were bone yards of these old tanks we took out in 91, fenced off with "DANGER-RADIOACTIVE" posted all around them.
23 February 2019, 20:08
Guy RumpSuperb dio Neuling! 👍
The Challenger 1s I saw during Op Granby had the inverted V in black on their sides (and top) as Allied identification marks. However, I can not say that they all did as I only saw some of them during the conflict.
22 January 2022, 13:07
OlivierGood to see some UK armour.
Once more a perfectly mastered 'mise en scène'.
22 January 2022, 17:57
Roland SachsenhoferWhat a sight! To repeat myself - and others - this is a masterpiece in model making as well as in model photography!
22 January 2022, 18:53
Michael KohlI absolutely go with Roland and the others. I am particularly impressed by the painting of the uniform camo the cracked road wheels and the blasted box on the T-62. But these are only my favorite highlights on a highlight dio. Nice that this one popped up again.
22 January 2022, 20:50
NeulingThanks a lot mates! - This is an old diorama inspired by the pictures I saw after Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm/Granby. With my new camera I took new pictures and pimped the album up. - Guy I´m honored to get positive feedback from a gulf war veteran! And your remark on the vehicle marking "V" is absolutely correct. In my reference booklets (both of them Concord Publications Company) "Blitzkrieg in the Gulf" by Yves Debay and "Operation Granby" by Bob Morrison nearly all British tanks have the "V" marking except for the tanks with the number "42" (written in black or white digits). Was the "42" a unit which did not go into battle or were the pictures taken before the battle began?
23 January 2022, 12:06
Guy RumpHi Neuling, The numbers on the side of the MBTs were, I'm pretty certain, identification numbers within a Squadron of MBTs, i.e. 41, 42 and 43 for example would be the ID numbers for differing MBTs within the Sqn. The inverted V was not present when exercising before going into the war fighting phase so the photos you have seen are prior. Hope that helps. As I'm sure you can tell I did not serve with a tank Regt, I was a Medic.
23 January 2022, 14:47
NeulingThank you Alex! - Very interesting infos from you, Guy. Maybe I should rename the album "Before the storm", but what about the damaged T 62 then? Btw hopefully you did not have to be too busy as a Medic ..........
24 January 2022, 17:15
Robin (WhiteGlint)Awesome diorama, Neuling 👍
The damage on the T-62 looks incredible.
25 January 2022, 11:10
Simon NagorsnikI've noticed this a few times and of course it's a great job of yours!
the style of your photographs really suggests that it is a real scene!
29 January 2022, 10:33
NeilAgree with Simon, just looks so real - like all your dioramas do. Your work is always a pleasure to see in the feed Neuling 👏 your photo skills are to be admired also mate 😎👌
29 January 2022, 23:41
NeulingThanks a lot Andrea, Alister, Simon and Neil. Your feedback is highly motivating.
30 January 2022, 10:48
Dylana MossThose are some of most well painted miniature figures I have ever seen! And the wreck is incredibly detailed. Amazing work here!
3 February 2022, 07:40
NeulingThanks a lot mates! - Dylana, this uniform camouflage pattern is not so difficult to paint, but I do not know yet how to paint the modern pattern with the tiny digital spots.
5 February 2022, 06:27
Chan LiHaha, I wasn't shocked like last time, cuz I know you were the man who authored them.
I suddenly shared these pics with my friends, show them how much an ace modeler can create.
19 February 2022, 12:18
Michael OsadciwExcellent work! Especially the burned bits; really convincing.
19 February 2022, 14:18
JohnAmazing job on the whole thing but that T-62 damage is on another level!
23 September 2022, 21:32
NeulingThank you John! I´ve seen lots of pictures of damaged Iraqi equipment, but those damages are nothing compared to the pictures of totally destroyed Russian vehicles on the ORYX website.
24 September 2022, 10:49

10 October 2022, 12:34
NeulingThank you mates! Much appreciated! - David, looking forward to your Challenger. Meanwhile there are kits better than the old one from Tamyia.
12 October 2022, 19:47
Mr JamesThe detailed damage on the T-62 is superbly done. Your builds both inspire and depress me in equal measure. 🙂
29 October, 17:54
NeulingThank you, Mr James. I´m glad to inspire and sad to depress. Your work is remarkable and - also - inspiring.

Roland SachsenhoferLooks like the installation of a new boiler... but is the very first shell of the 'Trevithick', the first steam locomotive....
The vintage kit doesn't appear to be bad and quite well thought out, only the plastic material in an unhealthy-soapy looking green plastic made me a little uneasy. But it will be fine! 🙂
I'm really looking forward to the next steps - a highly interesting and refreshingly different topic!
29 October, 09:40
Roland SachsenhoferThe main assemblies have now been completed. Care must be taken here to clean up the numerous ejection marks and the many moulding protrusions, but that's the only thing holding it up 🙂
The colours on the parts shown are, apart from the primer with black acrylic paint, Alclad II metal paints, namely Gunmetall, Steel... and above all Alclad ''Panzer Grey''. Traces of various shades of pastel crayon brown have been applied on top with a dry brush.
2 November, 08:31
Juergen KlinglhuberSehr cooles Projekt - ganz nach meinem Geschmack. I'm curious about the outcome.
2 November, 15:42
Robert PodkońskiTaking a seat here, of course! (I have built another incarnation of this kit...)
3 November, 07:49
René "Lord Bilbo" Bartholemy@Robert Podkoński : Me too! Much less details than this one though...
Taking a seat!
4 November, 10:56
Roland SachsenhoferHello Rene, the seat is happily yours, but the show is already over 🙂
I am proud to present you the completed 'Trevithick'! It was great fun taking photos of this gearwheel, linkage and flywheel work of wonder. Please excuse the resulting large number of pictures.
This time Alclad paints were used for the colour scheme, but not only from the metal range: what you see here is Alclad's 'Panzergrau' primer, together with 'Gunmetal' and 'Smoke' and similar shades. I have replaced the plastic parts for the push rods with metal bars. I hope you like the result as much as I enjoyed building it!
5 November, 10:51
gorbyNice result Roland.
I was wondering how they added more coal to the boiler when the tender is so far away and the boiler door is under the pistons.
5 November, 12:08
Roland SachsenhoferThank you very much, mates! This is highly appreciated and motivating feedback! I'm glad to have ventured into an area new to me; the kit, for all its age, has charm and possibilities 🙂 Your words really make me very happy!
5 November, 15:58
Juergen KlinglhuberGreat what you have mangaged with this kit in such a short time - wunderful!
5 November, 17:21
Roland Sachsenhofer.... and Gorby: You're absolutely right! The layout of the loading and coal tender also seems puzzling to me 🙂
7 November, 12:16
gorbyI had a look into this and it turns out the original company who produced this kit got it wrong:
Youtube Video
Sorry Roland. 😉
7 November, 15:43
Bruce HuxtableGoodness! You wouldn't want to get your fingers (or hair) trapped in the moving parts!!
Nice build, Roland, I'm enjoying the sound-track to the video, whilst admiring your model 🙂
7 November, 17:02
Roland SachsenhoferThank you very much for sharing this great video! Yes, Bruce, a highly dangerous device, and a highly illustrative demonstration of it too

Rui SGreat work as usual 👍 The weathering and clean and shine interior on the road whells just wonderfull stuff...
I've also done a Panzer Regiment 8, Panzer II, but in North Afrika. Realy like that Bull Stencil.
Any issues with the kit?
28 January 2023, 01:03
Kristjan LindHey, Rui! Thanks!
About the kit: Getting the lower hull together was somewhat tricky and needed care, patience and attention.
The brackets that support the idler tensioning mechanism on the rear of the hull were wrong for
Ausf.B, and needed to be replaced. And I replaced the commanders cupola with a Dragon one too, because Tristar didn't have any interior details on theirs. Otherwise it's a great kit and a quite fun to build.
You can see the building of it here: britmodeller.com/for..547-panzer-iv-ausfb/
29 January 2023, 10:35
Markus AntoniusGreat realistic weathering! Finally, a Tank thats just DIRTY, not aged for centuries with excessive paint chipping.
