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

[nönöbär]

Only little process on the Junkers EF-132T1-6 as I am waiting for some color to be deliverd.

In the meantime, I continued on the HS-393 rocket propelled bombs and the cockpit windows


As the bomber should be used for long range strike mission, a big drop tank is required when the aircraft is carrying the HS-393 due to the increased drag. So I added a mount for the drop tank at the centerline.

[nönöbär]

Colors have arrived, so I could do some paint work now:


First color of the camo scheme is now added, plus the light blue on the lower part of the hull (not visible right now)


Lower part of the wing, the mountings for the Hs 393 are added and the bombs added testwise. I think it needs some really skilled pilots to get the Junkers EF-132T1-6 into the air, as the bombs are very close to the ground...

Coming along nicely

[nönöbär]

It now starts to begin to look like an aircraft:



Paint job is done besides some minor corrections. But now I found out that the Hs 393 do not fit below the wings.  Thought I had tested it correctly. So I now have to make some modified Hs 393b which are not so high at all.

Suits that colour scheme

Lovely. Soviet designs of the 50ies and 60ies have a huge Luft '46 potential - personally, though, I find the Tu-16 is still too close to the real thing, despite the Luftwaffe markings? But I love the overall idea

Well, the Junkers EF-132T1-6 will only be a slightly modified compared to the Tu-16 - I am still in the warming up pahase to get back into model building again.... 
But the next model will have some more radical changes....

[nönöbär]

Everything has been painted and put on its place so far:



Upper side



Lower side

Two Hs 393 and a huge drop tank have been added.
Right now I am looking for the decals (where have I placed them) and the final finish on it.

Very cool. The aeroplane does look right at home in those colours !

[nönöbär]

Now that the Junkers bomber is done, something small for the rest of the year.

Its just a test model to try a camo painting - hypothetical air wing on board of the Graf Zeppelin carrier. I saw some options for the camo, so I want to try the different alternatives before doing the "real" models for it.

Here we go:

This will be the model, a very basic Frog kit


Progress so far:


Would be a quite untypical plane for a German carrier....

[nönöbär]

Most of the painting is done now, so the Corsiar looks like this:



Two different grays for the camo pattern and light gray on the lower hull parts. The alternatives I want to test on other models is exchange the lower hull gray with light blue and as a second alternative to use a standard green camo for the camo scheme.

Decals and final finish are next.

Very neat.  Did you see the Graf schemes I did some time ago?

They're all based on either actual schemes or schemes I've seen others put forward for the role.  Since my hypothetical Ju 187 would have been a bomber, I gave it the full splinter in most cases instead of the half usually seen on fighters.

Cheers,

Nice drawings, could give some new ideas..... but wait, I have to build the carrier wing for the Graf Zeppelin first.

The Corsair is now completed:


A bit more about its "history" is here http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,36256.0.html

[NARSES2]

Now that looks neat 

[nönöbär]

While concentrating on the Graf Zeppelin carrier, a small non-whatif just left NöNö Bär's Flugwerft:

A Mastercraft Mig21 with Czech markings. On the photos it looks more gray than aluminum, a bit strange. 





The kit was quite basic, but you cannot complain for the price (<5€). I was surprised that the decals were quite good.
