Thank you !!!! As you all know, our relatives and some friends aren´t able to see the real dimension of this magnificient hobby; scale ships. They say " are you still doing ( playing) little boats?" and this king of jokes. That is why I really appreciate your comments. From people who know our job, it is rewarding.

Welcome to the best ship building forum on the web, at least in my opinion.

there are many posts of those who have built some of the different kit or scratch build models, you can use the search tool to help look them up.
