Gizmo2K2 Posted June 15, 2022 Share #1 Posted June 15, 2022 Hello all. Thanks for adding me. I have always been fascinated with model ship building and I joined this group to learn more and to share with you some of the things that my Uncle has created from scratch over the past several years. Is it OK to do that? I don't want to step on any toes here. Thanks again. Dave_E, mtaylor, Keith Black and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanyed Posted June 15, 2022 Share #2 Posted June 15, 2022 Welcome aboard Gizmo2K2, Do you prefer Gizmo, Gizmo2K2 or a regular name? Looking forward to pictures of your uncle's models. Not sure the new member forum is the right place to post them, but hopefully a moderator will direct you to the right forum here at MSW.

mtaylor Posted June 16, 2022 Share #5 Posted June 16, 2022 Welcome to MSW, Open a topic and post your photos of your uncle's models in Nautical General Discussion area. And if you're starting a model, open a build log.

von_bednar Posted June 16, 2022 Share #6 Posted June 16, 2022 Welcome aboard! Looking forward to seeing your uncle's creation and see what you'll get up to! I'm a new in this hobby myself and I wish I had a family member who would have given me the "modelling" bug earlier as I'm having a blast working on my first model!
