Ordered this subscription a few days back, got shipping notice yesterday, and found the first box at my doorstep today! Lots of ideas on what I want to do on this build, yet so much time to figure it out. It's hard not wanting to rip into them and put it all together at once, but I foresee lots of detailing in my future.

Here's box 1, issues 1-4 ready to go! My first kit from Model Space (have two others I'll be starting in parallel, so I'll be busy; Mustang and Sovereign of the Seas). Love all the builds and look forward to learning from everyone here!

Please be patient, this build will be slow as I'm on the 25 month sub, but plan to work a little each month and document it all.

You will love this build, I am on issue 81 and should finish the subscription by Christmas, but it will be way into next year before I finish.
Good luck, and I look forward to seeing your progress over the coming months.

welcome to the build.
Best of luck with your build and hope you are happy with your end product.

I personally just started in May.
I bought months 1-17 (68 issues) in bulk to get things moving.
Now receiving month 20.

So are you able to call and accelerate delivery when desired for future months?

Put together a few pieces tonight so I could say that she's officially been started. Probably won't do a whole lot more this month on this kit other than read up and plan, but I can say it's officially started now. Off to work on the Sovereign of the Seas.

Nice to see that you've officially started.

As strange as it may sound I actually really loved watching the frame come together, it's a marvellous structure on its own
