Well just spent the last few days wandering the forums, and thought it about time I introduced myself.
Im Kym from SA...
BigGrin
Been doing dollhouse and other miniatures for a long time now, and have been dying to do some sort of ship. So hubby sub'd me to Sovereign of the Seas, and the more parts that arrive the more excited I get. We are currently up to part 7.
I haven't put any of it together yet, been researching paint / colors / availability etc.. But we have constructed a base, assembly jig and today will be making the rib support.
I would like to say im so grateful for the forums, some wonderful information that has helped me already.
BigGrin
Looking forward to starting my build

Hi KymMaree,
Welcome to the Aussie forum. As George said most of us Aussies are beginners, so don't be afraid to ask questions. The expertise from this forum is incredible. Enjoy and remember to take your time.

G'day KymMaree

A very big welcome to Sovereign of the Seas building and forum. I too have never done anything like this before but find this forum brilliantly helpful in supporting the magazine.
Always take your time and don't hesitate to ask questions. There are some great shipbuilders here who will always have a concise answer.BigGrin

Kind regards
