Aaron, another class of overlooked aircraft is those which were deployed from submarines, including as far back as WW1.

That example, is the Martin Kitten. A very small biplane, which had the ailerons at the very wingtips.
Similarly, I don't think the WW2 Arado 231 has been modelled, although the Bachstelze rotary kite which replaced it has been.

The Japanese Seiran of the Sen-toku Class is of course familiar and has often been modelled.

But the collapsible spotter plane carried by Surcouf is less well known, as is the successor to the Martin Kitten, which successor was carried by the X2, aka M2 sister ship of the M1 sub discussed elsewhere.

Those are a few of suggestions which might also find favour with you, Aaron, as they are again unique and unusual aircraft, and not often previously modelled if ever.

Kind and Respectful Regards Aaron my friend, Uyraell.
