FortressHarris Posted October 26, 2023 #1 Posted October 26, 2023 Hello everyone! Been sitting on the sidelines of the forum for a bit, while I contemplated returning to the world of modeling. Did a few plastic models(non-painting) when I was a preteen, but that's as far as my experience has gone. Now approaching my 40th, I've decided to turn this into my midlife crisis hobby, ha. Just started the Model Shipways Grand Banks Dory, and so far I'm very happy I read the forums for a bit before starting up. Thank you all, already, for your build logs. Everything is a lot smaller than I remember. Looking forward to reading many more of your build logs as I progress in the hobby!
