• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I am almost done with the Skyrocket, just need to finish the VC. However, I won't release anything until I get my spiffy new widescreen LCD back from the shop. It developed a serious intermittent at about 90 days. I am using my 7 year old CRT which is OK for design but not for texturing. The red gun has a tendency to bloom and so it won't hold a good color balance for long.
Meanwhile here is a "first look" at the Douglas XB-19. Look, Maw, no props!

Cheers, Paul
 
WooHoo! Nice work as usual Paul!! Looking forward to taking these to the skies!
 
Are you also going to model the XB-19A with the inlines?

They both look great so far. :ernae:

I don't plan to do the inline version mainly because I don't have enough data to do it justice. I have pics, but no drawings. BTW, my family lived in Columbus, Ohio next door to Wright Field during WW2. I actually saw the B-19 in flight a couple of times. It was fitted with the inlines by then, this was probably 1944. I remember it seemed to fly about as fast as a Piper Cub and took the entire city of Columbus to turn around.
