Capt Nemo Posted March 16, 2020 Share #1 Posted March 16, 2020 Hello all you wonderful people here on these boards! I've been hiding in the shadows for many years now and i'm finaly ready for the light! I've been building model as far back as i can remember, but only with plastics. That being said, I have bought myself a new Latina Bluenose II Ship Model Kit many moons ago and have since decided to throw caution to the wind and dive in with both feet. Without these forums the seas of this wonderful hobby would be increasingly hard to navagate. Thank you MSW and everyone on deck for the all the help and camaraderie we find here in. ~all the best~ Nemo JeffT, ccoyle, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccoyle Posted March 16, 2020 Share #4 Posted March 16, 2020 Welcome! If you have not yet had a look at Frank Mastini's Ship Modeling Simplified, I believe that's the exact kit that he used to illustrate his methods. Cheers!

mtaylor Posted March 17, 2020 Share #8 Posted March 17, 2020 Welcome to MSW, Nemo. Give some thought to opening a build log in the kit area. It's a great way to make friends and get help when you need it.
