Hello, as stated above I am a card modeller. Started with this a few years ago.
That being said I may not fit into this forum that much. But I discovered this forum a few days ago because I started to work on sailing ship designs ... card board, not wooden.

I came here to seek help and knowledge as you folk here really know something about sailing ships, especially from the age of sail, in what I am interested.

My online researches came to the point, where I now need direct suggestions and opinions.


And I also love to see ship models in museums and always wondered how to do something like that. Who knows, one day I may do a wooden ship but I certainly lack skill, equipment and space for that
 
Oh thank you!
Yes, I actually just posted the introduction and after that I discovered the card section lol

Ah, and I noticed the small brazil flag on my avatar. I am actually german, just visiting friends in brazil.
But then again I don't need a german flag on my avatar.Pirate Flag might do it as well :p
