+====== Build Records Index ======
-===== Introduction =====
+This page is an index of solid model construction and reform records preserved in the **Japanese Solid Model Archive**.
-This section gathers records related to Japanese solid model culture.
+The records listed here are not limited to completed models.
+They also include records of processes, corrections, decisions, and the ways aircraft forms were understood through making.
-It should not be read as a gallery of isolated works, nor simply as a list of individual articles.
+For information about individual makers, please see the author pages.
-What matters here is the possibility of following how **form, making, correction, and judgment** become visible through records.
-Some records are centered on individual makers.
+----
-Others preserve reform, reconstruction, or work in progress.
-Taken together, they show that Japanese solid model culture survives not only through finished models, but through the records that make form readable.
-In that sense, this section is not only an index.
+===== Available Records =====
-It is also a guide to reading solid model culture through records.

+===== Types of Records =====
-The **authors** section introduces individual makers.
+This archive includes several different types of records.
-It asks:
+==== Construction Process Records ====
-  * Who was this maker?
-  * What position did he occupy in Japanese solid model culture?
-  * Why does his work matter?
-==== Records ====
+Construction process records follow the making of a solid model from material preparation and rough shaping to painting, markings, assembly, and completion.
-The **records** section focuses on individual records.
+These records are useful for understanding how the form of an aircraft gradually emerges through the making process.
-It asks:
+They are not merely lists of procedures.
-  * What kind of record survives?
-  * What can be read from it?
-  * How do process, judgment, correction, and making become visible?
-A reader may therefore enter the archive either through a person or through a record.
+They show how observation, correction, test fitting, and judgment are repeated until the form gradually becomes clear.
-===== How to Read This Section =====
+==== Reform Records ====
-These pages are best read not as unrelated entries, but as a connected flow.
+Reform records follow the process of reworking a model that had already been completed once.
-A useful path is:
+These records are especially valuable.
-  - begin with a maker
+They show how a completed model was reconsidered, opened again, corrected, and brought to a new state of completion.
-  - move into a specific record
-  - follow how form is corrected, stabilized, or renewed
-  - compare different records across makers and periods
-In this way, the section becomes more than an index of pages.
+From a finished model alone, it is difficult to see where the maker found problems or how his judgment changed.
-It becomes a map of how a modeling culture preserves its way of seeing.
-===== Record Pages =====
+Reform records preserve that otherwise invisible movement of thought and decision-making.
-==== He-115B Reform Record ====
+==== Parts-Based and Process-Based Construction Records ====
-A reform record centered on re-seeing, correction, and the renewed emergence of form.
+Parts-based and process-based construction records follow the making of a model not only as a single linear sequence, but also through individual parts and stages, such as the fuselage, wings, nacelles, engines, propellers, armament, painting, and final assembly.
-This record is especially important because it preserves not only a completed result, but the sequence through which an earlier model was questioned, reworked, and brought toward a revised final form.
+For large or complex aircraft, the making process is not always a simple straight line.
-It also includes two complementary layers:
+Parts are made separately, checked through test fitting, and eventually integrated into a single completed form.
-  * preserved original forum-based pages in reverse chronological order
+The Fw 200 C-3 record is an important example of this type of record.
-  * a reconstructed reading framework for following the reform chronologically

-===== Records in Perspective =====
+===== How to Use This Index =====
-A finished model shows a result.
+If you want to follow the making of a model from the beginning to completion, start with:
-A record shows something else:
+  * [[en:authors:fukuda-kazu:fw190-d9:start|Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-9 Construction Record]]
-  * where dissatisfaction began
-  * where correction became necessary
-  * where judgment changed
-  * where a new final image emerged
-For that reason, records are not secondary to finished works.
+If you want to read a record of how an already completed model was opened again, corrected, and brought to a renewed completion, start with:
-They are one of the most important ways in which solid model culture becomes historically readable.

-Its aim is not only to preserve finished work, but to preserve the sequence of decisions through which form becomes visible.

+===== Highlights of Each Record =====
+==== Focke-Wulf Fw 190 D-9 ====
+The Fw 190 D-9 record is a detailed construction process record.
+It follows the model from material preparation, shaping, surface preparation, painting, markings, and final assembly to completed model photographs.
+The value of this record lies in the visibility of the process.
+It allows readers to see not only the completed model, but also how the form was gradually made.
+==== Heinkel He 115 B ====
+The He 115 B record is a reform record of a model that had already been completed once.
+It preserves the process of removing deteriorated paint, rebuilding the nose section and canopy areas, reworking the surface, repainting the model, and bringing it to a new completed state.
+This record shows that completion is not always the end of making.
+A completed model may be reconsidered, corrected, and guided toward a new final form.
+==== Focke-Wulf Fw 200 C-3 ====
+The Fw 200 C-3 record is a parts-based and process-based construction record of a large multi-engine aircraft.
+Because the original material had been organized by parts and processes, this archive reconstructs the record as closely as possible according to confirmed dates and the sequence of work.
+This record allows readers to follow processes such as:
+  * material preparation and the emergence of the overall form
+  * interior work, cockpit, canopies, machine guns, and gondola construction
+  * nacelles, cowlings, and attachment to the wing
+  * spinner and propeller construction
+  * engines, bombs, and accessory parts
+  * painting and markings
+  * final assembly and completion
+What is especially important in this record is the way separately made parts are eventually integrated into a single completed form.
+It also shows that making does not consist only of active work.
+Decisions such as waiting for putty to dry are also part of the making process.

+===== Notes =====
+Some aircraft subjects and markings in these records belong to wartime historical contexts.
+They are presented here solely as part of the historical and documentary record of scale model making.
+The purpose of this archive is not to endorse any ideology or military action.
+Its purpose is to preserve and study the techniques, processes, decisions, and records of solid model craftsmanship.
