    Thanks for all the replys and other feedback. Il probably then take a step back on the tools and buy only what I need when I need it. Also thanks for the suggestion on the Shipways 3 model kit. Il take some time to think on the matter but as long as there are good guides on it in case I get stuck. Then its a good contender for my first kit.

    Thanks for the advice you all. The Vanguard Sherbourne seems more appealing to me due to it having very detailed and good instructions also i like the ship. Now I just gotta list all the tools I gotta get too like ship stand, pinpushers, plankbenders and much more. cost what it will cost atleast the tools is a one time purchase.

    Hello all. A short introduction of myself im a 25 year old Swede having recently picked up an interest in model ships im now close to going all the way and getting myself a first ship. Initially I wanted to for the HMS Terror by occre considering they have so many tutorials up and there is alot of build logs on it. But having thought it through I decided to go for a real beginners kit instead so I can get some proper experience so once I hopefully get the Terror I will be able to build it without any issues. But having browsed this forum now for some time I would like some advice on a good first time wooden boat kit. Personally I have got my eyes on two ships. 1 The Polaris by Occre 2 HM Sherbourne by Vanguard Models Occre has tonnes of videos on their shipbuilds and the polaris has alot of build logs on it however The Sherbourne seems to have a very detailed and extremely good instruction manual for beginners. Though the Sherbourne being a much newer model there is fewer build logs on it at this moment but I suppose that will change. So what do you people think any suggestions ? Thanks in advance // Stuka
