Bruce Atyeo Posted September 7, 2018 #1 Posted September 7, 2018 Hi my name is Bruce Atyeo and I live in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. Very pleased to find this site since I have always been fascinated with ships models. Thanks to BlueJacket Shipbuilders. If I ever retire, it is my intention to try my hand so I'm looking forward to learning from the best. Nice to be aboard. Fernando E, Haliburton, ccoyle and 2 others 5
ccoyle Posted September 7, 2018 #2 Posted September 7, 2018 Welcome, Bruce! Why wait until retirement? You can always try your hand at a relatively simple model that doesn't require a large time investment. Cheers! mtaylor 1 Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.
