SCRATCH BUILDER Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) So i have person over at the Art Station web site and they do some pretty cool drawings and he had one of a B29 Tie Fighter and thought it would be cool to do this in 3D. So here is the 3D work and now I am of to the printers!, I do have the engines for a B24 kit i hope to use.

Out2gtcha Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Interesting! Have never really seen anything like that before. Just off the top, I might say it may look more balanced if the cockpit pod was moved back just a tad instead of so far forward. It will be VERY unique when done!

Tnarg Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Given almost no lifting surfaces, it must use anti-gravity for lift... or maybe Edgar Rice Burrough's liftwood or unicorn droppings? No matter what, this is almost as cool as I can imagine, rivaled only by the Westland Hill Pterodactyl. Tnarg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCRATCH BUILDER Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) A bit of an update, I have about 95% of the items printed, just some small bits to do, at the moment my brain is fighting with my attention span on weather or not to do a cockpit, for now i am set on printing my bucks and pulling some clear plastic for the windows. Almost forgot, I know i should have a 4 prop blade but i had an old 1/48 B24 sitting around so I'm using that.

I'm designing a model rocket of this same design. Any chance you'll be selling any of the printed parts? https://www.rocketryforum.com/threads/lakeroadsters-sci-fi-b-29.164207/#post-2098985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will get that worked out, i have an idea which i think will look cool, remember this is just for fun!, Besides it only took me a day to design it all up and after printing i may have to re-think a few things, plus i think i will scale this down 50% (wife says where the hell are going to put that) Edited February 8, 2021 by SCRATCH BUILDER thierry laurent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
