Really like to see this monster of a helicopter finished. Nice!

Mr D
Soviet's had some great green paints, really distinctive, love it.
If it's Russian Aircraft...it's got to be Zvezda 👍👍👍

Mike Montgomery
Very cool! Would be interesting to see in 1/48 scale.

Ekki
Watching too.

Mr D
Really interesting subject, love Soviet era stuff, Zvezda do a really nice kit, great work so far, good colour matching 👍👍 be following.

Did you use the kit green decals for the butt end or paint it? I have been waiting forever for someone to make decals without the green so I can paint my own.

Nigel Chapman
Like it. Great photography too. All it needs now is the service van!

Phil M
bossy122: thats clever, no I use it on a white painted body and the decals are not that good, so they broke at certain places. I didnt care that much cause I wanted anyway to weather it a lot for the dio, but if you want a clean car, its better to paint...the smaller decals are ok tho. Its like a Fujimi kit, fragile suspension, so so decals, but fit relatively well. If you weather it, its great...

Phil M
ahah thanks Nigel...as I live in a small place, i cant do huge diorama sadly...🙁

Neuling
Very good diorama! 👍

Mr James
Very good dio with lots of great details.

Phil M
Thanks Neuling and Mr James!

First "batch" of components ready for primer

Alec K
Cool! Very promising start, taking a seat 👍

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 ☺️

Nicolas
Looks great so far.

Rui
I'm in 👍

DerMattes
Promising start, watching!

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
Welcome @Nicolas, @ Rui and @DerMattes - thanks for your interest in this build 😊

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.

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.

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 ...

Neuling
How can you handle these tiny parts .... amazing

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

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

J35J
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.

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 ...

Neuling
Thomas, will a glass of beer do ? 🙂

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
@Neuling … who drinks beer in glasses? 😂 but I guess it will work

Neuling
🙂

Alec K
Thanks Thomas 👍. Ehm, I need glasses to find the beer… 😄

Trez Mackenzie
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!

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 😊

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

Trez Mackenzie
Thanks Thomas, I look forward to the fots

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 😆

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.

Frank Brzobohaty
Great job, not the easiest in 1:72 scale is it Thomas? but it is rewarding when completed!

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 🤷‍♂️

Juergen Klinglhuber
Looking good - realy looking forward to see the finished bird.

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
Thanks @Jürgen. Working on the main paints already … German camouflage in 1/72 is a challenge 🤣

Shar Dipree
Looks fantastic so far. 👍👍👍
What did you use to prime the plane?

Spanjaard
nice collection. is the decoration done with decals or painted? i am mostly talking about the very dark with light blue on the sides, and the golden decoration of the blue/purple

Jurgen Verhelst
On both cars are decals. The Skull on the Van is hand-painted.

Spanjaard
golden declal are an impresive work of decalling. really nicely done.
i am sorry, but I not see the skull in the van, maybe in the roof? i see something there, but the picture only shows the borders

Jurgen Verhelst
Indeed, Skull is on the Roof. I'll put a new picture.

Spanjaard
nice, thanks

Bob Hall
Sweet Rides ! Really Love the Blue on the 64 Mustang !

Alexander Grivonev
Great cars Jurgen!

Tom ...
Absolutely wonderful. I hope one day can have such a great collection. That's a lot of amazing work. Bravo!

Chris Greathouse
Awesome collection! I love the sparkly blue paint on #35 and your truck and trailer with cars, pic #42, is epic..

Thomas K.
Nice cars 👍

Dominik Weitzer
nice colection - so many different colors.
specially the bug (pic 22) and the yellow testarossa- beautiful! And the 328...love that.

Martin Oostrom
What I like most, is to see the evolution of your skills. Each new build shows you're getting better and better. Very nice 👍

Dominik Weitzer
nice update! The color from that lightblue Porsche 944 turbo looks like mine! Thats funny...

Villiers de Vos
A nice line-up.
