First, this is the first time I have started a thread here and as I have seen various other threads in english, hope there is no problem. I only speak english and spanish.
I have just received from Lech at CardPlanes (Model Kartonowe) a pre-release copy of his latest design, the PWS-10 Chiquita/Pavipollo and he has graciously allowed me to show the build and final pictures.
The model is well designed as all of CardPlane models are. The package consists of 5 sheets of construction diagrams, 2 sheets of formers on 80gsm paper and 4 sheets of parts on 160gsm paper (all A4 size):

As this is not the release version, the aircraft descriptions and information were not included. The construction diagrams are ecellent and very easy to follow. The model has well over 200 parts. The cockpit is extremely detailed and the textures are excellent with weathering. All in all, this looks to be an outstanding kit.
I have started the build process by gluing the 2 sheets of formers/wheels and various other pieces to 0,85 heavy card. The next progress post will show the first cuts and assembly.
Until the next.
