This highly detailed poly model is accurately scaled to within a few percent of its actual dimensions, with an exterior boasting intricate details such as radio antennas and pitot tubes. Landing gear has been intricately modeled with moderate levels of detail. Some cockpit and rear compartment features are also precisely replicated and textured, including instrument panels and controls that have been meticulously modeled and textured as well. The model boasts fully rendered textures and high-res materials, allowing for accurate reproduction of its appearance. This poly model is available in various file formats to accommodate different requirements. A unique corporate transport based on the B-26 airframe was known as the On Mark Marketeer, capable of carrying six to eight passengers. Its close cousin, the externally similar Marksman, featured a pressurized cabin and was outfitted with civilian-styled paint schemes and larger engines. In addition, fuel tanks were mounted on the wing tips, allowing for greater range and efficiency. Although not specifically designed for transporting civilians, this aircraft still managed to surpass all other available civil aircraft in terms of speed at the time. Initially produced on a limited basis, these models failed to gain widespread adoption due to a lack of demand from executive buyers, ultimately leading to their discontinuation shortly after production began. However, some examples were sold and operated for decades into the 1970s and 1980s, providing a rare glimpse into this lesser-known aspect of aviation history.
