This is another Build inspired by spare parts from another kit, in this case the seaplane floats from the Glencoe 1/77 Curtiss Condor kit.
I've long been fascinated by the Great War fighter flying boats, so when I saw the floats from the aforementioned kit, being the straight sided Edo type, and knowing that I had several sets of Fokker D.VII parts, plus engines and propellers, I decided to build a Great War fighter flying boat model.
I chose to build a 'Brandendurg DD' as a what-If follow on to the real world Brandendurg CC, between that and the real world follow on W-series. Also the colour scheme is clear doped linen and natural wood, with Eisenkreuz markings.
Okay, let's make a start . . .
Here are the float halves, to make the hull,

and glued together, top view,

and the bottom. The white spot is some putty, to fill a sink mark.

This the wing I will use. It was originally the wing of a OWB Fokker D.VII, one of the fisrt One Wing Biplanes I built. When my skills and techniques had improved, I built another D.VII, and scrapped and recycled the older one, hence the cutouts.

And now the tail surfaces. These are new ones, first fresh off the runner,

and trimmed to size, and then joined.

That's All For Now, Stay Tuned . . .
cheers,
Robin.
