Ludwig's Modeler's Library

Post by Ludwig »

Dear fellow modeler

As a model kit builder since over 40 years I became confronted sometimes with missing assembly manuals. But very often also just with the curiosity how the one or the other model is built or how it looks like. Or simply the fun to glance through such assembly guides.

So as I followed this curiosity, I recognized that other model builders are either fighting with the same problem of missing instructions, or with the same curiosity of "how does it look like", or with the need of more or further information about the model they are building or plan to build.

Out of this I get the idea to collect what I felt over, build myself, or found found on my journeys through the Internet and bring it together. All this on a very simple page - because I simply don't wanted to make big programming efforts - just make it available for that the model builder community has a place where they find a lot in a (so I hope) easy and comfortable way.

Since a short time my website "Ludwig's Modeler's Library" is online. Containing right now almost 4700 instructions, and many more to come.

You find it at: http://www.cavallar.ch/model/;

I hope you find time to have a look at, and maybe you find it worth to mention it on your webpage.


Thanks a lot in advance, and best regards
Ludwig

Dear All

I made a huge update on my site. So right now it contains 11620 different instructions.

Airfix itself has "only" 763 entries.
Airfix - All Kits - sorted by Item No. 763
Airfix 1:144 27
Airfix 1:32 50
Airfix 1:48 47
Airfix 1:600 38
Airfix 1:72 442
Airfix 1:76 51
Airfix H0 & 00 29

However, have a look and have fun.
Still working hard to have more and more.

Best
Ludwig
