Yes, Siwi, there are a lot of options!

Right now I'm working on the four reincarnations of the CM+RY / F2-90. On 31 October 1944 a Luftwaffe Do 24 rescue aircraft, CM-RY, was flown from Nest (Unieście) in Pomeriania to Sweden by a deserting mechanic, Heinz Roesch, and his girlfriend. Roesch was hired as an adviser and the Do 24 entered service with F2 wing at Hägernäs, today the Täby seaplane flying club. It served in the rescue role until 1951.
I have already done the last two paint schemes and just remain to do the two first ones.
The final pack (or combo) will be released together with a great discount. For many of you that can't wait, the metalic F2-90 has been already uploaded to ecardmodels in both sizes (1:33 and 1:72) and should be ready to download this weekend.

Today I finished the swedish combo, including four airplanes in just one pack. It's unloaded in ecardmodels, but still not published, so wait for a few days. Same with the F2-90 bare metal.

Meanwhile I found another interesting Do-24 from the Seenotstaffel 6, the KD+GA, with yellow tails and cowls.

I'm planning to finish the one in the RAAF, and later both spanish ones. I haven't done them because the gunnery positions were open and I need to draw them, so there will be a small redesign of the gunnery sections to ressemble more the real inside of the plane.

Update: the metalized F2-90 version, 1:72 and 1:33 scales, is available from ecardmodels.
The Combo12, covering the four reincarnations of the CM+RY / F2-90, is avalable too but only in 1:72 scale.

Status of the proyect:

The CM+RY / F2-90 1:33 combo has been uploaded, awaiting to be published. The 1:72 version is currently ready to download.

I'm repainting the DQ-H from the Raaf, previously the X-10.
It's notewhorty that this plane is not a Do-24T but a Do-24K, being them the planes build before the WWII.
Instead of the Bramo 323R-2 Fafnir, they had P&W R-1830, so there will be changes in the engines, cowls and there will be an extra air intake.
It seeeems that the rear turret was bigger than the one in the Do-24Ts, I'm researching that.
For more information about this planes, see GEOFF GOODALL'S AVIATION HISTORY SITE
