Gaz Posted March 9 Share #1 Posted March 9 Good evening everyone, I have just taken my first tentative steps into the world of model ship building, after being gifted a part built HMS Peregrine, that a friend of the family had given up on. As the family knew I enjoyed Sci-Fi model building and painting, i am now the proud owner. She is a lovely ship, but a little bigger than I would of chosen for my first ship. I have started my first log which can be found here, so please join me on my journey and any advice will be gratefully received.
