And I must admit, although its been a long job, and interfered with a lot of other work, designing and building the Saladin has been an enjoyable experience. Hopefully you will get as much enjoyment out of the kit.

Also includes: 21 pages of detailed assembly instructions and diagrams. And Full colour cover and Information Pages. Pages are A4 and Letter Size print compatible. A couple of photos of the finished model below.

A few of you have got the Saladin kit already...thank you...
please don't hesitate to give us your opinion. I'm very interested to hear what you think of the Kit and the overall package. As usual, I try to follow a pattern or method when assembling the kits, but things keep changing with every new kit! lol If theres anything you like or don't like, please post your opinions. I know you haven't built the model yet, but feel free to write a "review" of what you've seen so far. And don't forget, you can also write reviews (of any kit) at ecardmodels. In fact, its real important that we hear from the customer. Let us know if you really like a model...or if it doesn't meet your expectations. Especially if there are problems or errors. If we don't know, we can't fix them.

So...its been a while since I did one of these....
its been brought to my attention...an error...in the Saladin kit! ...there is a problem on Parts page 15. Part 114 is not labeled...actually missing. I remember, when I put together the Parts Pages, I had some confusion over the Engine parts. I had modified parts while test building... and Part 113 (the upper Pulley) needed to be flattened. Made less deep because of tight clearance. The 113 Part in the kit, is not the same pulley as on my original test build. I did the same with 114...modified its depth and overall size. I'm sure that is why there is an unnumbered part on the page. It was supposed to be swapped with the new 114 Pulley. But I obviously forgot to do that. Anyway...I have removed the unnumbered part... and added a new (114) lower Pulley part) In a few minutes, I'll replace the page in the store kit, and anyone who purchased the kit can just download the updated version. If you bought from ecardmodels, you can (later today) log into your ecard account and download the file once again. You will be downloading the updated file. If you bought the model directly through me, just contact me and I can send you the updated page. If you haven't bought the model...you should...its a good model... .... thankyouverymuch
