Dear shipmodelers
It's so pleasant for me to read your responce for my start in forum. Thank you very much
The last few days after registering on the forum I watched and studied it. I read posts, watch models and process they are building. I realized that the forum is a very good school and a pleasant club for meeting and communication. I realized that I wish to go to this school and this club. And I thought that I should tell a little more about how I came here.
I am not young. The main goal was to give some work to my hand and don’t allow my brain to fall. And I feel that shipmodeling is the best occupation for this goal, and also very pleasant
MY way in this direction starts one and half ago:
Trumpeter Scale German heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen 1/700 - plastic
Tamiya Merkava 3 Israel Battle tank 1/35 - plastic
I could not remain indifferent to the vile attack on my country and expressed my feelings building the tank. I present this model to my grandson, a tank technician, on one of his vacations from Gaza.
Revell HMS Victory 1/225 – plastic
After this I realized that plastic is not for me. I have loved working with wood all my life
and I switched to wooden models.
Victory 21” from some vendor on Ebay –built half and trash
Viking ship model from some vendor on Ebay – almost built and trash
Again
Victory 21” from some vendor on Ebay – and did it. Here some photos
After that I feel I finished children garden and can go to beginning school and order
