Welcome Martin,
There are the older more mature modellers on here.
And then there are the older not so mature modellers on here.
And the we have the not so mature modellers on here.
BUT! If there is a question that needs to be asked, then ask it, and you will get twenty answers back and all will be advisory and helpfull.
So pull up a chair, have a wander around the different subjects and even there you will start to pick up little snippets of advice.
The question I always ask is who was it put me to bed last night...

Welcome Martin from another novice. I've just finished, (98%), my first attempt after a 45 year break!! Loads of really good folk on here and always willing to help. Dive in and enjoy. :thumb2:

Martin, a warm welcome to you, sir!
Muck in and have fun.
We try and get a balance between fun and serious intent once the kit box is opened and we start to concentrate on our projects. A recipe for success for sure. :thumb2:

Cheers.
Ron

A warm welcome from me too Martin! Check out the 'Anatomy of the Ship' series by Conway Maritime Press - the HMS Victory subject will tell you all you need to know - and much, much more besides! It's a few years old but I'm sure you'll find a copy online at a reasonable price!

Welcome to the madhouse Martin!

 

[OldMart]

Hello everyone. Hope everything is going well for you all. When I get organised and take some pictures of my attempt to put a kit together, where do I post it and do I follow it up with my progress? I had to undo quite a bit today, never mind it's another mistake I won't make again. Martin
