SteveBos777 Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM #1 Posted Wednesday at 03:16 PM (edited) I joined up because I'm starting to build the SS Rex from OldModelKits.com. Modeling was my childhood hobby, here are some of my ships in 1981. Now I have a house with a full basement, so years ago I built benches and a paint station, and got all the toys, er... tools. I have quite the stash, because buying models is much, much more efficient than completing them. I've built many model cars here over the last ten years and, after a few decades, I'm diving into a ship model. A resin one that that. Wish me luck! I think I'm ready for this. I can do this. Glad to be here. Edited Wednesday at 03:19 PM by SteveBos777 GrandpaPhil, PqLear, ccoyle and 2 others 5

mtaylor Posted 5 hours ago #12 Posted 5 hours ago Welcome to Model Ship World. I have faith you certainly can build the model. Do open a build log when you're ready to start. It's the best way to get help as needed and meet others.
