Got your attention? Good.
There is a Spanish language Blog that offers free downloaded images of things like cigarette packages and ration boxes that you might be interested in. The Blog main page is at this link: FC Modeltips (http://fcmodeltips.blogspot.com.es/)
The download file page is at this link: [FC Modeltips] Descargas (Downloads) (http://fcmodeltips.blogspot.com.es/search/label/descargas%20downloads)
The most recent example offered is WW2 era K-Rations with the individual breakfast, supper (lunch), and dinner boxes that you print out and then cut up and fold to make the individual packages. A lot of work for something so tiny but it might make your next modeling project worth the extra effort.
The K-Ration boxes in this thumbnail image can be better appreciated by clicking to view the full size image.

If you have not checked Federico Collada's FC Modeltips (http://www.fcmodeltips.com) blog lately I recommend you take a moment to go and see all of his latest graphics that he shares for FREE to anyone that wishes to download the images for their own modeling project.

His latest files include rations and beverage boxes boxes that can be assembled by simply cutting out the image and folding it to shape.
