Pfalz E.I - card model 1/33
« on: May 23, 2014, 07:23:02 AM »
Hi all!

Pfalz E.I is another of my card models. This time it`s my own project. Pfalz E.I always looked for me more interesting than its Fokker contemporary, mainly thanks to its compact design and outlined in black fuselage corners and flying surfaces. There was no avaliable model of this plane in my favourite scale, so I bought Windsock Datafile Pfalz E monograph and created it on my own.
I`m also planning to make a project of its "younger brothers", Pfalz E.III and E.V.

Truly astonishing work, Piotr!  Did you paint her after assembly or before.  Simply amazing that you've created such a beauty from scratch.
Cheers,
Bud

I made this project using Corel Draw, colours are printed on parts. So there is no need to paint card models.
You can try Your hand at making card models - I have also made project of Morane Saulnier G based on Pfalz. It is avaliable for free download here. Enjoy:-)

Thanks, Piotr!  A few years ago, I downloaded a 1/48 scale Albatros Dr.II with the hopes of building it using plastic card stock.  Haven't done it yet, but I will soon, thanks to your encouragement.  Here it is, in case you're interested.  I don't think it would be too difficult to enlarge it to 1/33 scale. http://paperinside.com/wwi-aircrafts/

Poitr you are an absolute master at making these card models. They are simply wonderful beyond what words can express. A completely different medium to plastic, wood or metal, but incredible all the same. Many congratulations.
