  1. Hi Mtaylor, Thanks for all the tips and suggestions. I will check out the post you attached to your response. If and when I take a stab at building I will log my attempt 😅, that's a great idea.
  2. Thanks for the information ccoyle! I haven't found scala anywhere, but I think the model is from 1987 or after. I found the year on the advertisement leaflet. I would actually be happy with the $50 because I bought it for €2,50. From your comment I gather ship kits can be very pricey. I'm too nervous to start anything myself, and think I'd need to see a great model ship up close to get properly inspired. I have no idea what I would build. Do people also build docks for their boats? Little lighthouses? Do they ever see if their ships stay afloat and catch the wind for real? How about building a model with cardboard and paper? How about submarine models?! 😅 I feel like I have a lot more research to do. So much I have no clue about. Kind regards, Ellen
  3. Hi everyone, I'm absolutely new to this forum and the world of model building. I'm from the Netherlands. I was wondering if someone could help me with information on: Caravella di C. Colombo 541/SM Pinta (Aeropiccola) I bought one recently, but have never built a model of anything before. I was wondering if you know how old it is? What price I should ask if I were to sell? And where I might best try selling the kit or model. I'm assuming it's worth more now, than when I've made it. It would be fun to give it a go, but maybe I should sell this one and try with a simple/cheap kit instead. Since I have no idea what I'm doing. Also, how do people know the scale of the model? I see people writing about 1:2000 or something like that, but I can't find anything like that on the box. Does that mean mine isn't to scale? The model kit is complete and comes with an instruction manual in Italian and in English. Hoping I successfully attached a picture to this post. Any information or suggestions would be appreciated very much so. Kind regards, Ellen Mulder
