NöNöBärs's What-If Flugwerft (WIP: Greenland Airforce TS-11 Qinngorneq)

[nönöbär]

Something I wanted to build for quite a while - not really a What-If as it really flew - the Me 163.

So I grabbed a HobbyBoss kit in 1/72 and build if OOB. I really like those simple, cheap Hobby Boss models, they fit quite good, have good decals and are quite fun for a quick build now and then. So there we are:

Hey, looks good man!!

This one will another model of the "Fatherland" timeline, based on the theme of the book by Robert Harris. Or it could be "The Man in the high Castle" which is maybe better known after the Amazon Series.

So, this will be the Junkers 707 Intercontinental Airliners. Which is - surprise, surprise - based on the a Boeing 707 kit. With a few additions of course.

So this is that i will use:


Which is mainly this (and it fits quite bad, a lot of putty is required)



After the first putty and sanding sessions, the first two colors have been added, two more to come:

I'm always happy to see a model from the Fatherland universe! Very cool!

The basic painting is done now, a few spots where masking did not work so well have to be fixed:



Engines are already build, painted and added to see if they fit correctly.

[Dizzyfugu]

That looks very good. 

[TheChronicOne]

Yuuuuuuuup, sure does!

[nönöbär]

The engines are now fixed, lower side of the wings are painted:



Currently fighting with the cockpit window, does not behave as it should .... 

[KiwiZac]

Oooooh that looks cool! Top work!

[NARSES2]

Oooooh that looks cool! Top work!

Totally agree 

[loupgarou]

Good job! The black painted parts of the wing undersides are to cover exhaust traces from the Jumo engines, I suppose?
