Felixstowe on display

Bit different. Didn’t have the space for those massive wings, so decided to concentrate on the internals instead. The figure is gobbled together from CSM figures, found the led somewhere on the web.

Nice and interesting. Congratulations and one question - the internal structure of the wing cross-section - do you have and reference for it?

I think it ticks all the boxes: clever, interesting, creative, clean, and crisp.  It is quite the unique model.  I suspect it may inspire a good number of other modelers.  Well done.
