yes, these will be available at ecardmodels.



a little update and a teaser:

this first Issue release is a B24A (LB30) which has different engines than the B24D
(Marek's original kit is a B24D)
...so I had to make a few design changes.

obvious difference is the engine cowlings are round instead of oval,
with side intakes, etc
I have redesigned the overall engine shape to more closely match the original LB30 engines with a rounded cowling and one air intake inside the cowling opening.
I also reshaped the props to better match the original.

I did a final test build today, of the new engine design...I even assembled a small section of wing, to see how the entire assembly fits together...
and the results are quite pleasing!

heres pics of the new engine, please forgive the terrible printing quality! (my Printer doesn't seem to like my new printer cartridges and I can't get anything to print correctly!)





anyway, a few more design tweaks and she will be ready for the reveal!
stay tuned!
