GAStan Posted November 21, 2021 #1 Posted November 21, 2021 Been a member here for a bit and just realized I hadn't said Howdy. I actually started building boats as a teenager. I completed a plastic model of the USS Constitution and did the rigging on a Cutty Sark for an uncle that built the model but after about 2 lines decided that wasn't for him. Then I joined the USMC and life happened. Now I'm back to model ships. Currently I'm building a Galleon from Disar Models. So far the build is going well and I'm really enjoying it. Glenn

Louie da fly Posted November 22, 2021 #6 Posted November 22, 2021 Hi Glenn, and welcome to MSW. I'd highly recommend you start a build log - it's a great way to get feedback, help and advice. The members here are very knowledgeable and helpful. Steven mtaylor, Ryland Craze, GAStan and 1 other 4 It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.
