Welcome to the hobby and MSW Daniel. This is the place to learn and be part of the hobby.
There is a very active club in Denver - the Rocky Mountain Shipwrights - probably the most landlocked club in the US. Having a local ship modeling club is a great tool for the beginning modeler - just like MSW. Check out our web site's listings of clubs for the info on the Denver club. A friendly bunch of guys and gals - I have attended some of their meetings and several members attend NRG Conferences regularly.

Take care,
Kurt

Daniele,
A warm .
I have a previous life in the merchant marine. Very fun and awarding job.
There are several "Connie" build logs you can look into and get valuable information, your build log will help you and us if you get stuck.
Don't be afraid to ask questions, even though it may have been asked before.

Hi all , my name is Daniele and i live in Denver CO.
i registered a while ago' and i thought its now time to introduce myself sorry if i didnt do it before .
I started with shipmodelling when i was 18 , i remember my first model was a small fishing boat and after that i did a scratch build from and aeropiccola plan of the Cutty sark . After that life started to get very busy and after 2 years of navy i continued the career as a merchant marine officer so the time for modeling was kind of over especially for big project.
I did continue on small project like warship in 1/700 and now after more than 25 years seems that i am finally settling in one place ( hopefully ), so its growing in me the desire to start again on "big" shipmodelling project .
Few months ago' i picked up at an auction a Model Shipways kit of the Uss constitution ( the hull was already builded) so now i am setting up a small workplace because i want to start to work on this project asap .

Geez, thanks everyone! I am already feeling at home here. Anja - the model is plastic, made in 1966. It was on sale on ebay years ago, and I just bought it (I think for less than $20). Yeah, slow is how I am moving these days. Again, thanks everyone for such a warm welcome.

Very nice indeed. I will follow your build with interest. I too have a Victory that has been on hiatus for several years and I am about ready to begin again as I rig my HMB Endeavour.

Thank you for all the messages of welcome and support. I will try and set up a build log and add some photos that I took earlier. I think that this is going to be a slow build because of all of the other activities that I have and the "Honey Do" list from my wife........................................................
