You can find links to the sites starting here. I do not know which specific site or page it came from. If you PM Charles (username: cdavenport) I'm sure he would be happy to send you a copy.

Thanks, B-Manic for the kudos. I am getting those vintage models from Pilpat's Flickr page. She has scanned those at a very high resolution which makes restoration an easier task.

In contrast, Toto's scans are much lower in resolution making them less suitable and more difficult to restore.

If you see something on Pilpat's site, I may have already downloaded and restored it. Just ask; if I have it, it's yours, too.

BTW, for you Christmas lovers, I have several vintage creches that I have restored....beautiful works of art.

Here's a link to the cannon at the Toto site:

Canon Rodarte

Thanks, Curt! That page of Toto's site is particularly rich in vintage militaria of all types, with an emphasis on Italian and Spanish (based on a quick look).

I must try B-Manic's cannon (I presume that cañón rodarte means "field gun," and not "rolling, or travelling, barrel" as Google translate tells me).

if Toto's scans are much lower in resolution that's because he doesn't scan himself what he post, in fact more than 90% of his post come from other site from the web blog, web shop, etc.... sometime he is in good mood to put the link but most time he don't like to put link ... but it's even cool because he find great vintage papercraft
