jeffzcuban Posted April 23, 2021 #1 Posted April 23, 2021 Hello! My name is Jeff and I've been involved in modelling/painting for over 4 decades. I just haven't done a sailing ship in a looooong time. I figured I'd get back into it by build a couple plastic models first before taking on actual wooden models. I have the Mayflower to replace an old model I lost while deployed many years ago and then its on to the 1:96 Revell USS Constitution. If I feel the love for it like I did back then, I want to take a step into the wooden kits. Jeff Keith Black, Ryland Craze, Mike the Maxx and 1 other 4

Ryland Craze Posted April 23, 2021 #3 Posted April 23, 2021 Hi Jeff and welcome to Model Ship World. I hope you start a build log on your Constitution model. There are a lot of modifications you can do on this model. Building this model may lead you into building many more wooden ship models.
