Thank you all for the welcome! My wife says the same thing, «all you’re doing lately is sit and fiddle with those models» 😎 Well, you said to find a hobby, right? 😆 Anyway, off to fiddle some more to satisfy the urges!

Hello to all, and thank you for all the welcomes. I haven’t been taking much pictures of the Bluenose or the Hannah, but I’ll post some pictures of them when finished. I think I’ll start a log for the Le Renard though. Therapy for shipaholics might be just the right thing for me, you may very well get a new patient soon!🤒

Thank you very to the very kind person who moved the topic to the correct forum. My first post, and I get it wrong. 🥴 One might say I’m techologically challenged...😆

Yeah, I didn’t realise it would be this bad. I mean when you open the box, it’s just some sticks and plywood.. and maybe some string. 🙄

Hello. I started building the Bluenose, kit from billing boats i february and searching for something online I stumbled upon this site! What a great forum and what amazingly much experience and info there is to find here! I registered back in march sometime and have been lurking around until now. I used to build RC model airplanes from balsa and plywood when I was a kid/teenager. Also plastic static models like airfix kits. I built a boat called Artur by Igra which was plank on bulkhead that I rigged with RC when I was around 13-14 years. So starting modeling again now some 25 years later I see myself as a complete beginner. I live on an island on the west coast of Norway. The Bluenose build was coming along well, but I didn’t wanna use the supplied mahogany for the deck, and I have been waiting for weeks for limewood strips to arrive in the mail. So in the meantime I started a second build... Maybe not the smartest but I finished it yesterday! The ship in a bottle kit hannah by amati. Still waiting for the deck, I started a third build... (this stuff is really addictive, maybe its the glue?) The le Renard by Artesania Latina that I bought at a discount. This is just started and I’m thinking of starting a build log for this. Anyway, this was a littlebit about me, looking forward to be using this site in the future. Good modeling to all!
