I got this down load some time ago and printed in black ink only. It was just after I started card modeling (you know all that time ago-three months
) Any how, I put it away and forgot about it. My kids didn't. I have a five year old and a 10 year old who love to do modeling, and an 11 year old how like to start models, then quit about halve way through. Wanting something to do while I worked on the armored card I was making, they got into this kit and did a lot of the "painting" with markers and some of the cutting. I finished it for them today.
The cowling and front end is coated with a lot of layers of white glue mixed with water soluble blue ink to make a metal like surface.
This is the second E-III I have made. The first one, the freebee from
Ecardmodels.com actually came out better because I didn't have four people working on it, but that one the Cub Scouts made off with. That seems to happen a lot.
I am not sure were this one came from, if it was on from our "found it on the internet" page or not. It is copy right by Modele Katonowe 2003, and I have 11 styles including a war prize with Brit markings! I wish I could find the link for you all. Any how, construction wise, it went together just fine, all parts fit fine, and judging from the lay outs on my screen, the colors would have been awesome as well. I am not sure about the rigging, but I did it with one thread on a sewing needle and just stung it into a pattern that seemed to mach the drawing.
Any how, this model was a great way to keep the brats occupied while I worked on my stuff, and it was a great build, if slightly colorful

Phil found the Link!
