Model Website Links List

[FichtenFoo]

You know... I'm constantly asking Fulcy, Phil or Zero what site such and such kit was from. I have an extensive list of links, half are dead now, but they're poorly labeled. So I just had a thought. How about we make this thread a "Master Link List" for modeler websites. This thread will not be for discussion of sites, but just a list of great modeling websites. Any subject... Gundam, Ma.K, cars, aircraft armor, ships, sci-fi, etc... We'll do this the same way as the online stores list. Please format links as follows and post them. The mods or I will then copy them to this post and delete your post to keep this thread clean.

UPDATE (16 September 2006): Because several sites bridge more than one genre of modeling, we haven't organized the sites in to categories (yet?). In the meantime, you can visually navigate the various categories through color-coding. Color codes are as follows: Aircraft, Anime, Mecha, Armor, Figures, General, Gundam, Sci-Fi, Scratch-Build, SF3D/MaK, Ships. Don't worry about including the colors when you post the links--we'll take care of that when we add it to the list.
