Lillypawz Posted April 2, 2023 #1 Posted April 2, 2023 Hi, I'm new to modelling, my dad used to build models out of match sticks when I was a kid. Made a promise to finish his ship now he past and I'm a man of my word. OK didn't realise it was a magazine kit with many missing parts but I'll figure it out lol. Going to get one of the 3 stage starter kids that you guys recommend from one of the local model shops near Sheffield UK if possible before ordering online bruce d, ccoyle, Knocklouder and 4 others 7 Quote

mtaylor Posted April 3, 2023 #7 Posted April 3, 2023 Welcome to MSW, Lillypawz. Is there a first name we can address you by? I don't know about the UK, but many hobby shops will order the kit for you, or you can order from Model Expo/Model Shipways directly.
