GumDrop Posted May 7 #1 Posted May 7 (edited) Hello all, I'm joining this forum from Italy, I usually build airplanes and everything related to flight (so also space models), but over time I developed a certain interesse also for ship models, especially warships and the history that surrounds them. I do hope I will be able to share my works and maybe receive some hints or help from other fellow modelers, I'm sure there are plenty of people here way more skilled than me Edited May 7 by GumDrop Keith Black, mtaylor, Baker and 1 other 4
