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 !!! 😎

Nice progress. Modelimex is a place to get the Kora parts from, just in case 👍

Good explanation, Juergen 👍

Juergen Klinglhuber
thx Alec &Lukasz for you very kind support 👍 - appreciated.
But the first cuts are already done - no way back now 😉
(and I have to odmit: usually I like it to test my skills by a DIY task every now and then)

Juergen Klinglhuber
Welcome aboard Stefan!

Juergen Klinglhuber
I have finished the modification on the engine resp. cowling. Some new pic's up-loaded.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Very interesting and extremely promising! We talked about it in Ried, and now I'm delighted to see these ideas being realised in such an impressive way!

Juergen Klinglhuber
🙏 Thx alot Roland, I am happy to receive your appreciation.

Nicolas
I'm joining this interesting build.

Łukasz Gliński
Impressive rework of the engines 👍

TH SCALE MODELS (Thomas Haberl)
Nice progress Jürgen! I´m in to see how this beauty comes together 👍

Cuajete
Fantastic mods, 👌

Juergen Klinglhuber
Thank you mates for leaving your nice comments.Iam wWorking on the exhaust pipe currently. New picture up-date should be ready after this coming weekend.

Juergen Klinglhuber
All mod's are completted now - after adding the windows of the cockpit I can move it to the paint hangar.

Roland Sachsenhofer
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
Great job, Juergen!

Build completed so far. Still waiting for the metal barrel. Quite challenging to attach the Zimmerit- PE parts. Was annoying when it comes to round shapes on the turret front armor. Treating those metal parts with some heat, made them much more handy to shape. First time using Friul tracks, very time consuming, but the best track result I´ve seen so far 🙂

Spanjaard
looks certainly good already🙂

coporado
Thanks bud!

Lower part of the tank was painted and received weathering. Tracks were mounted and connected. Rear fenders were the installed. Next is masking lower section and painting the upper parts.

Christoph Kunz
Nice job. I'm taking a seat.
Is it going to be some "Magdeburg-stuff" again?

coporado
Thanks, Christoph! This time its Normandy subject 🙂

Christoph Kunz
Next time I'll read the headline.
Stupid me...

coporado
The tank received several rounds of paint. Starting with red brown primer, followed by dark yellow as base color and finally the camo pattern. Next is detail painting, and weathering.

coporado
Initial weathering steps were conducted; chipping the Zimmerit and the metal surfaces.

coporado
Weathering of the exhaust section using acrylics and enamels.

Spanjaard
looks fantastic

Neuling
I agree. Very interesting dents and battle damage.

coporado
Thanks, Gentlemen! 🙂

Nick N
The exhaust looks awesome! How did you make that?

coporado
Thanks, Nick!
The exhaust was painted in a medium grey first. The parts having armor plates underneath were left in the original painting, as these area is less affected by heat and corrosion. Then a warm white followed by a reddish brown was applied using the sponge technique. Next was rust tones painted and blended with enamels. Colors of the original camo scheme where then applied with a sponge in the areas with less corrosion, to turn out the different stages of heat impact. Finally the upper parts received a slightly black shade to simulate the exhaust fume grime.

Nick N
Thanks a lot, this is very inspiring 🙂

coporado
Tank completed, time to start the dio 🙂

Kick off for the base. Styrofoam is the desired material for house, road and pavement. As the road and pavement is covered with lots of dirt and debris, I added cobblestone only randomly. For the road thin sheets of styrofoam were shaped using a 3D printed rolling pin. In order to create more texture the stones were carved with a pencil. For the pavement an old brush was used to shape the small stones. Everything was painted in several greyish, brownish, sandy tones with acrylics.

The shape of house was cut with the Proxxon hot wire. To make the facade more interesting I added some "decoration" around the upper windows. A border seperates the upper and lower floor. Next is closing the gaps between the decoration elements at the upper windows and cover the lower floor with wood.

Doubtingmango
Just found this. Stunning work with great narrative!

coporado
Thanks Doubtingmango!

Slowly taking shape. Lower floor fassade updated with some wooden panels. Dirt and debris was added to the road and pavement and painted with the airbrush. I used the same colors I used for weathering the tank tracks. Next is windows and door installation and of course detailing the interior.

Christoph Kunz
good work, in speciall the wood paint, tip top
