So glad to join this party. You are all so skilled and talented and fearless. It is a joy to see your work and be inspired. I am planning to start a deep dive in the fall and will share my progress and questions as things go. In the meantime, from my quarantine outside Boston (US), stay safe and healthy this summer!
 
A warm welcome also from my side - Enjoy the forum and the friendship

I expect to start LA VENUS in 1/72 as a full POF from Ancre in the fall if I don’t get distracted by work or other shiny objects. Currently planning out my workspace and the BOM for the ship. I’ve seen a few members start build logs only to abandon them - I don’t want to do that (too disappointing for both the author and the audience!) so am proceeding slowly with deliberation. I think I’m old enough now to be able to curb my excessive enthusiasm!
