UHU - over the top?

UHU02 San's step by step pictures of each of his model builds are his instructions.

I save his instruction pages using Google Chrome which has a click to translate button.

I have only had the courage to build his TinkerBelle, his simplest model, and it came out very well. I have picked up a several valuable techniques from going over his build photos, and have been keeping my eye out for Japanese brush pens at a near by art and paper supply store (Marco's Papers). I also realized he must be using made in Japan cutting blades, so I now check to make sure the ones I buy are made somewhere with a reputation for making decent steel (Japan, US, Taiwan). That made a huge improvement in the quality of my models.

UhU02's instructionals remind me of a physics class I took in college. I could follow the instructor while he was at the chalk board, but there was no way I could ever do the derivations myself.

Fully agreed Thorsten !
And what about free ?
Some 'designing' hobbyists deface their site in such a way that their 'free' has become a mockery. Not talking about the quality of their 'free stuff'.

I have built several of your kits, most recently your LEM. It is a masterpiece of design and the finished model is one of my most prized accomplishments as a modeller.

Your kits and your generosity in sharing them have enriched this hobby beyond measure. You have nothing to be sorry for.
