I'll post some images shortly of the 1/48 prototype which is impressive in size. (Unfortunately my daughter stood on it so you will have to forgive the dent in the wing)
As a subject matter the early airliners have so much to recommend them, both in their marvelous, almost surreal aesthetics (I am reminded by Moebius comic book art), and their suitability for design and construction in paper. Add to that their unavailability as models and lack of presence in museums and the design process has an almost archeological aspect which becomes quite engaging.
