Former USN (work for the VA now). Last year decided I wanted models of some of the ships I served on. Finding none, I figured I go the "built it myself" route and made my first plastic model since childhood.

It has since escalated. On my first practice wooden build now. Started out rough, but I'm slowly learning and improving.IMG_20250409_180229.jpgIMG_20250409_180029.jpgIMG_20250409_175848.jpgIMG_20250409_180212.jpgIMG_20250409_180108.jpg
 
Welcome aboard, and from one Veteran to another, Thank you for your service.

What part of the US are you from?

You have a nice collection of ship you have completed, and hopefully many more in future.
