Hey Up, hi guys (in the non gender sense). Originally from Yorkshire, UK, but now living in Dorset.
My first boat model was a messy Airfix Victory.
My first wooden ship was a Harvey kit, which I didn’t look after. Followed by a Caldercraft Endeavour and then the Deagostini Sovereign of the Seas, appalling materials (ie Bamboo) which I replaced. I then built the Admiral Perry and Bismarck with Pontos PE. Now I am back to wood and am attempting some of these amazing Chinese kits, that is the new Richard Bonhomme X-Section and the 1:160 enterprise sections. I am probably out of my depth,already but hey if you don’t try you’ll never know. Any who how, I love your forum and how you’re more tolerant.
 
Hey Andy, welcome from a Virginian! I love the forum and I am sure you will too. Some astounding craftsmen on here, and great administrators...looking forward to your posts!
 
Welcome to SOS. I'm building my second Chinese manufactured kit. The instructions are horrifying but the materials are great. The assistance of SOS site members will see you through.
You already probably have more experience that a good portion of us here
Happy modeling
