Hi,
Completely new to model ship building, I recently had to retire from work due to severe ill health and as I now have a lot of spare time confined to home I thought I would try my hand at building some wooden model ships. I spent my Youth in the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and hope to one day build a model from scratch of my first ship the Fleet Refueling Vessel R.F.A. Olmeda. If i can ever find some plans. I also used to Row in Cornish Pilot Gig's and would love to build a model of one of those at some point.
I have read all of the Alexander Kent Novel's so I would like to build vessels from the 1770's up to the 1820's. working up as the books do from a sloop of war to a first rate Ship of the line.
I have no idea on what I should try first I am open to suggestions, also I would like advice on what are the best tools for a beginner to buy.
Thanks in Advance.
Guy

Amalio,
Having just joined MSW I have been looking through members previous builds etc, and having just spent the last 2 hours looking at your current build. All I can say is if I can get anywhere near this quality of work I would be happy. You work is beautiful, a wonder to behold. Thank you for posting a picture diary of your build, I look forward to seeing what comes next. You are a master craftsman.
Best Wishes.
Guy
"Acabo de unirme a MSW y he estado revisando las compilaciones anteriores de los miembros, etc., y acabo de pasar las últimas 2 horas mirando su compilación actual. Todo lo que puedo decir es que si puedo acercarme a esta calidad de trabajo, sería feliz. Tu trabajo es hermoso, una maravilla para la vista. Gracias por publicar un diario de imágenes de su construcción, espero ver lo que viene a continuación. Eres un maestro artesano.
Los mejores deseos.
