    Hi All

    Would like to thank you all for the great posts here. I'm new to the place and just started building model ship, liked the idea very much and plan to spend more time in the new hobby.

    Have been to many handmade crafts before, but never constructed a model boat before.

    I've completed my first model boat and here are some shots. Hope you like them and if you have any advice or free plans link, I'll be grateful.

    Ps. please bear my "poor" photographing ( not a perfect photographer :( )
    Regards

    Welcome to the hobby. My father was a ship modeler and I started quite young. It is a lot of fun.
