Hello all, I think before I start my topic on this forum I should introduce myself. 

I'm 39, married, and a father of a marvelous little kid of two and a half years. I'm a medic, and besides that I'm also a martial arts instructor (japanese MMA), a biker and a guitarist. And of course I try to be a modeler, but I will not finish my model until a few more years...  :D

I currently build "Le Soleil Royal", and I hope my work will be of some interest for you. 

Thank you for welcoming me here, and please be indulgent with my poor mastering of the english language.

Best regards,

Marc

 Welcome, and don't worry about the language issue. We have plenty of people around here who don't speak English as primary language. When you're comfortable after looking around a while feel free to start a log of your current build. We would love to see it.

You have already created a 'heritage' for your little one. Its a way to open the history of France for him. In a way we are all beginners as each new model is a beginning. My grandson is too young for models yet so I built him an all wood garage for his cars. BTW I was in Germany in the early '70's as a soldier.

Hello Marc   :sign: from Monterrey, Mexico

Spanish is my main language and I see your English is better than some Americans I've seen. ;)

I am a guitarist also. I hope your stay here will make you improve your ship building skills.

I am currently building the French Royal Louis of 1780. Gorgeous ship, in my opinion.

There aren't but two options: do it FAST, or do it RIGHT.

 

Current Project Build Log: Soleil Royal in 1/72. Kit by Artesania Latina.

Last finished projectsRoyal Ship Vasa 1628; French Vessel Royal Louis 1780. 1/90 Scale by Mamoli. 120 Cannons

 

Future projects already in my stash: Panart: San Felipe 1/75; OcCre: Santísima Trinidad 1/90;

Wish List: 1/64 Amati Victory, HMS Enterprise in 1/48 by CAF models.

 

So much to build, so little time!
