Schreiber-Bogen Cologne Cathedral enlarged
This is my first build post on this forum.
I've enlarged the Schreiber-Bogen kitset to approx 1/195 scale. This has allowed me to detail the kit to my liking. I started the first cut in August 2021, and as to date I'm now starting to assemble the flying buttresses. I am traditionally a plastic kit modeler, so feel I am sometimes out of my depth with technique with paper models, however I've well and truly got the paper modelling bug, and this is my 4th paper model. I can't speak highly enough of this particular kit, the designers have done an amazing job on it. |

As above. The amount of work involved makes me tremble.

.... nice to see what you achieve with my design from 1988 ...
Interesting: you're assembling the model in the same scale I did the original drawings in those days. Watching your (And Marco's) assembly I detect some design-details I would handle different today ... Anyhow - I am honored to see your build ... Cheers Thomas |

You're not the only one- I too tremble from time to time when I'm about to work on it :-) I'm glad you like it.

In the larger scale it's certainly a nice size model. It's been on my bucket list since I first saw it, and I'm enjoying the process. I don't know how you got along without super glue back in those days :-), certain parts it's helped hold quickly. The part that confused me for a while was the smaller centre spire. Your design seems to be the pre ww2 spire. Looking at reference photos of the modern spire it is quite different to the original. I couldn't find a decent photo confirming the top of that spire had cut outs, but I decided to do it, as your model appears to suggest they should be cut out. |
