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.

Juergen Klinglhuber
Hello mates and thank you for your interest!

Juergen Klinglhuber
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 !!! 😎

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,...

Alec K
The metal finish looks great, has nice variation to it 👍

Thomas Kolb
I agree with Alec, the metal surface looks very realistic in the photos!

Cuajete
I agree with Alec and Thomas. Great metallized! 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thank you Alec, Thomas & Cuajete. When I had finished I thought: "Grab, overdone. This bird was for sure not that worn as it went to the airshow more or less fresh from the manufacturer." But the more looked at it the more I was okay with the result. So your comments are welcome and soothe my concerns. 👍

Nicolas
Don't worry Juergen, even on new airplanes there are sometimes clear visual differences in the sheet metal. For example, some manufacturers deburr the rivet holes with a grinding machine, the sheets are made of different alloys or are applied with different rolling directions, all of which have an influence on the appearance. I like it.

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thx Nicolas !!

Juergen Klinglhuber
DONE.
Uploades some pictures of the final result.

Robert Podkoński

Beautiful job, realistic wheatering, congrats!

Mr James
Agree with Pietro, and Neuling is right about the log, it looks really bloody good. Also, its the first time Ive seen a T34 with the engine cover up. Did you scratch build that bit?

Gary Curling
Many thanks for the kind comments Villiers de vos,Neuling,Pietro De Angelis and Mr James,this model has a interior and for the planed diorama is a t34/85 with engine problems with crew bailing out.The log is a real from a dead rosemary bush.
