Metal Earth American Bald Eagle 3D Metal Model Kit (Premium Series) becomes a large etched-steel bald eagle, joined with tabs and holes rather than glue or solder.

Why it is listed here

At about 9.6 in long it is a wide model for a Metal Earth kit, with more shelf presence than the compact space and landmark kits. The maker rates it challenging, so it rewards builders who have finished one or two moderate kits first. Its wildlife subject makes a change from the vehicles, spacecraft and landmarks elsewhere in the range, and the raw steel shows off the etched detail.

What the build involves

Tweezers are the maker’s recommended tool for the tabs, and needle-nose pliers help with longer folds. Work slowly on curved parts so the shape stays smooth, and twist each tab once only. At nearly 10 in long it needs a shelf with some width, and a soft brush keeps dust out of the etched detail.
