Short answer: No
Long answer: they have never released a digital version of their kits, all of their printed kits were/are printed on a silver coated paper

Fuselage copnstruction

Ahoy Paper Wrights
Another update build report thus far I almost have the entire fuselage completed a few more parts here and there. done a lot of burnishing here I decided to give this silver bird a 3D look by adding panels to the fuselage my own personal touch apposed for what the kit has printed. Next update will be the completion of the fuselage and her tail feathers.

As for fit issue I haven't ran in to any but skins 67 were very tight I had second thought that they were not going to fit rendering the kit in buildable. the paper in the kit is quite flimsy and it wont take much to push in a dent that wont go away so be careful when assembling these Geli kits.

Fuselage assembly finished

Ahoy Paper Wrights

Herte is another video of the day got the fuselage all wrapped up next attention to the tail feathers. I forgot how flimsy these Geli kits cabn be so becareful in handeling these kits dfurrring construction you will press through a dent in the paper and it wont come out so again be careful. Those panel lines sure show out using kitchen foil Thus far no fit issues kit goes together very well I am bringing this kit along with my Skyhawk to the model convention next month. so I will posting some more builds here as I go along. Okay here are the pictures for the day thank fellas for all of your views and comments i am honored.

Very clever use of the foil. You can also use the duller side for effect.

Stabilizers construction

Ahoy model Wrights

Another Update here, okay its time for the Stabilizers these were relatively simple the spar has been added saturated with acc glue or crazy glue to stiffen up the spars make them rigid and supportive .

Letting these dry will smooth and burnish later, Next step will be the wings stay posted for its construction I should have this wrapped up by this coming Monday or Tues. Then I will go to another build thread The Fresco is next 1.33 scale. she is coming along swiftly now once the wings are done she is mostly in her entirety completed here are the update pix for today guys thank you for your views and comments I am honored.

Hi Boats

Great build your work is outstanding.

Need to ask is the metal finish on these kits as realistic as it looks in the photo's ??
I have never even seen a Geli kit up close never mind owned one, but I'm liking what I see and might just have to order a few. I ask because I have seen and have a lot of kits that have metal finishes and are very poor quality. Now I'm trying to get a good finish on the Lancaster landing gear I'm build without much success with the finish.

Keep at it and have fun

Rob

I declare, you do the neatest, cleanest work. Boats, I noticed that you wear gloves in some pictures but not in others. When do you wear gloves and why?

Nice job, Deckape! I found your build logs. Thanks for mentioning this in your YouTube video. Card modeling looks very interesting, I think I’ll give it another try. Nice build!
At your service,

Welcome to the greatest forum in cyber space here you will find great people here from all over the world. There is a download section here if you have printer friendly you can print your kits and build and start your own build threads The best thing about card modeling is the expense they are not expensive like that of plastic.
