Hello!

[Fiurar]

I am in the early stages of building HMS Victory.  My wife bought me the Corel 1:98 kit over twenty years ago.  About ten years ago I started it and got the first layer of planking.  I was not happy with the results so I put it aside and just recently decided to start all over again.  I am building this iteration pretty much from scratch,  about all I'm going to use from the kit are the fittings and some of the material.  Wish me luck!  I'm going to post my first question shortly.    I have joined several ship modeling sites so you may if you visit multiple sites you may see me elsewhere too.

Fiurar, I am glad to hear that you are back into your ship. 

HMS Victory by Corel is quite a ship to build.

But this ship is a great flag ship to display at home.

And it is not a cheap model to buy today.

Seen prices starting at 700 dollars.

A cheerful hello,
I'm glad to read that someone else is building the model at the same time.
I also bought a Victory from Corel in the bay.
Together with an Endeavour from AL for a mere 100 euros.
Should arrive next week, this week I already received some literature to support me.
Make a good start, I'll follow up afterwards to see what there is to consider.
Good luck
