Twokidsnosleep Posted May 29, 2022 #1 Posted May 29, 2022 Wow what an amazing site. Good forum topics, nice bunch of members, some sound advice and amazing modelling. After searching for Black Pearl references for a project, I drunkenly stumbled into this bar. Have been lurking for a month or so now. Have modelled my entire life a wide range of topics but mostly cars and planes and am headed into shipbuilding. I do a lot of detail and scratch work and have started 3D printing too. Do woodwork, leatherwork, laser etching, 3D printing and soon metal lathe work….certainly have a tool fetish and far too large of a model kit stash. I have ordered the mini disk sander everyone recommends here from Model Machines Current floaty projects include: 1/72 plastic Black Pearl with some mods and dear Jack 3D printed A Budweiser Hydroplane kit And am trying to clear my project line up to get started on the Blue Nose, likely next year ya, so that’s me🙂 mtaylor, ccoyle, Baker and 5 others 8 Quote Scott Current Build: 1/72 Zvezda The Black Pearl

von_bednar Posted May 29, 2022 #3 Posted May 29, 2022 Welcome to the forum! That Black Pearl is looking great already. I hope you're going make it into a build log on here, or at least share more photos as you make progress on it. Are you planning on adding 1/72 Jack Sparrow to it as well?

Thank you I will show some progress when I am back on it. It is trivial compared to the beautiful wooden ships on here that blow me away, but we all start somewhere I suppose🤔 Keith Black, von_bednar, Dave_E and 1 other 4 Quote Scott Current Build: 1/72 Zvezda The Black Pearl
Keith Black Posted May 29, 2022 #6 Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Scott, welcome to MSW. Be glad it's just two kids, if it were three not only would you not have time for sleep but you wouldn't have time to build models. Glad to have you aboard.
