I'd just like to say this might be a major nightmare. I have painful visions of
thousands of low-quality models that you'd have to page through to find the
occasional gem.
If you had a direct link that you could put on a website, that would be
different. For example, I could see a train club having a particular model on
their layout, with a link from their website to where people could buy it. If
the model was good enough, it might be a good way for clubs to make some money
to cover operating costs.
