Welcome and thanks for your motivating words @Alec . First time I use something 3D printed and until now I enjoy it ☺️

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.

I 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.

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 ...

Glad you solved the hurdle. Any ideas why the engine did not fit, or what the issue was?

1:72? I would have trouble with those tiny PE part of it were 1:32!! Well done on your precise work.

Great 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.

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 ...

@Neuling … who drinks beer in glasses? 😂 but I guess it will work

What 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!

@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 😊

Following! 👍, great job with cockpit and engine so far.
I have the exact same setup for an F-8 Würger in the shelf 🙂

@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 😆

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.

Great job, not the easiest in 1:72 scale is it Thomas? but it is rewarding when completed!
26 June, 16:21
![](/profiles/img/125872-847-s.jpg)
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 🤷♂️

Thanks @Jürgen. Working on the main paints already … German camouflage in 1/72 is a challenge 🤣

Many thanks @Shar! Appreciate it. I used the one and only (for me) Mr. Surfacer 1500.
14 July, 08:09
![](/profiles/img/34360-107-s.jpg)
Yes, I like to use that too (Mr. Surfacer ). What gun, nozzle size and pressure do you spray with?
14 July, 08:18
![](/profiles/img/125872-847-s.jpg)
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

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...

The one thing that is always gained is experience. That will come in handy for the next build and so on!

It is a Dodge Monaco. That is sure I think. It's hard to tell, which kit it is. But on the other hand it doesn't matter at all. If the wheels came out of the box how they are, you'd tell, what kit it is.
It is a super idea, to build a civilian police car. Did you know, that I have the Gotham City police car in my shelf?
Before I forget: The color is pretty good to the undercover cop car 😄

Hunter! I remember that show as a kid. Your model predicts the original, very well. And thanks for the blast from the past 👍

Very inspiring work. I really like how the turret and hull have different camo patterns/colours. It gives this huge tank a lot of visual interest.
The rusty tracks on the turret are probably my favourite thing as they are nice contrast to the green colours of the turret. 👍
Cheers!
