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 ...

@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 🙂

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!

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 🤷♂️

Yes, I like to use that too (Mr. Surfacer ). What gun, nozzle size and pressure do you spray with?

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...

@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 💪

This kit looks pretty decent. It seems a lot better than the Revell kit. Were there any problem areas?

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

Thanks @Jürgen and @Skyhiker! Appreciate it. Decals are applied and final (or maybe not final, we will see) matt varnish also. She is ready for the oil party 🙂

Thanks @Frank!! I´m blushing, but I'm not sure if I ever show it on a competition ... in my opinion it´s not a competition model. Maybe I´m wrong ... I don't know. I´m a beginner with 6 finished models so I will have some more to present in the future .... but thanks for your motivating words - I appreciate it a lot 🙃

Take my word on it Thomas, that is a show winner and maybe even best in show. If this is the quality at 6 kits looking forward to see your work in the future.
All the final pics are incredible. You should make a display base for it.

A new build starte 🙂. It seems quite easy but one thing puzzles me - the tracks. They compose of 4 straight plastic parts and instruction says to bend them with hair dryer. It is first time I encountered this type of tracks. Anyone tried doing something like this?

I have heard of this type of assembly but have never built one. However, I have lots of experience heating and softening styrene plastic. You can also try very hot or boiling water -- soak the tracks in boiling water, then fish them out of the water with long tweezers and bend them around the rear sprocket, idler and road wheels and hold until they cool. You may even get by using no heat, just slowly and carefully bend curves into the tracks.

After some work done I need to say I am a little disappointed with this kit. Instruction includes some mistakes and it is not always easy to read how and where exactly a specific part should be located. More over I expected more from new molds (parts require a lot of work to remove additional plastic).

Hi Marcin. My advice is to *expect mistakes* and do your research accordingly. It may or may not be fun to research the T-55 but most of the photos or line drawings you can find online are free, it just takes some time.

Thanks Snake 🙂. I was considering adding some more parts to the engine but they wouldn't be visible after assembly so I left it as it is. Thanks one again for the track bending tips, they were very helpfull.
