1/72 Roden Felixstowe F.2a

[pustota]

Good day.
I will start building a flying ship. The model has been with me since 2006... the p.h. fret and AIMS decals.
I just wanted to put it all together and put it on the shelf, a
beautiful, colorful boat. But! Out of nowhere, "Wingnut wings" released his Felixstowe and I realized that Roden's model's interior is not good at all. Even with Part photo etched.
And I began to be smart with  the boat's skeleton. The white pieces are partitions.
Here's what happened tonight:

You are a brave man!  I will be following your progress with great interest.

As Stuart said, you're braver than me!  I too will follow with great interest.

I'm not a brave, i just young and naive

Love this - always fancied building one of the Felixstowes so looking forward to seeing how this comes together (Nice start by the way)

I will watch this with great pleasure and interest. Felixstowe flyng boats were always close to my heart. I have 3 of them in my collection, two Rodens and one WNW. Unfortunately, I could not correct all the errors on my Roden's ones because WNW was not yet available when I built them. Good luck with your build!

[pustota]

Thank you.
Yes, a very beautiful plane, I agree with you. Free time for construction, it's a pity i can't buy it.

This is one of those types that fascinates me, and yet I have no desire to own (let alone build!) one, so I'm interested to follow along. A great start!

Good day.
Made, painted and installed the base for plank flooring in the hold.

Now the oils.

Very impressive use of PE and scratch building with the interior framework and floor. Looking Lovely!

Only just seen this - you are indeed either brave or mad (or both!) trying to attempt this. Looking at what you have done so far I would add skilled to the description.

Good day. Finished painting and installing the deck. It was not easy to understand, decipher and depict a deck of three levels. The main structure of the hold is almost finished - there is stairs, one transverse beam and a wooden "slide" missing. 
I go further.
