I might be wrong but surely closing his site is a little bit of an over reaction, the model is published to the public to build and when modellers on a modelling website share and discuss the model his site closes, surely that is a case of cake and eating it. I know from personal experience that models I have had a hand in end up on a certain chinese website but I dont suddenly delete everything I have loaded. I cant control pirates, all i can do is not pirate myself but to punish proper modelers everytime they share your model that you allowed to be shared in the first place seems overkill.

Legal,
Uhu's site is up and running, as of right now. This thread is pretty old (from last year) and I think coincided with his transfer to a new(ish) blog website.

I agree with you legal01, closing a site of "free" paper models is not the answer....I wonder though if the people buying these "pirated" models know that the models can be hade for "free"....If the buyer knew the paper model was free, they may not buy the priated version......Somebody needs to work on getting the message out.......

the only way is to flood the net with the free paper models that were pirated, so alice don't get away with it.
