Pannonicus Posted November 21, 2019 #1 Posted November 21, 2019 (edited) Thanks for the membership. I am not a very experienced vessel modeler. I shall decide which project to publish here, whether it will be a brand new one or an already started one. What is sure is that I belong to the minority here because the raw material I work with is paper, mostly pure paper. I also like reading your valuable logs because it is a method of enriching my ship-related vocabulary. I am Hungarian. In the Roman era the Carpathian basin was called Pannonia, therefore is my nick. In spite of the fact that my motherland is not a typical seashore country, some fine model makers inhabit it. See you in the log comments.
