Thukydides Posted June 20, 2023 #14 Posted June 20, 2023 Welcome aboard. This is a great place to get help and on your journey into ship modeling. Two things I would suggest that will help you succeed: 1) Start simple - pick a relatively simple model to start with. 2) Start a build log - I cannot articulate how much help and advice I have gotten through people commenting on my build log. All the best. Knocklouder, Keith Black and mtaylor 3 Quote Current Builds: HMS Perseus (Scratch) Completed Builds: Type VII C U Boat (HobbyBoss); HM Cutter Alert (Vanguard Models)
