Hi to you all. My name is Tom and I'm new to wooden ship models. I have built few cardboard models (quite advanced I think) few years ago and when I spotted TV advert I got excited again. I've decided to go for it but I'm not sure if I can handle such big thing. I have had some read already and I'm even more excited :) I bought issue 1 so far and I'm going to sort the subscription out next week probably. Right now I need to find some space where I can build it and most important thing - when sould I out her when is finished? At the moment I have no idea :) So fingers crossed everything will go smoothly. Cheers

Well It looks like really long build build but it is worth it. I'll be waiting with hull until I have all parts so it will be a while. I'll put it in jig and then assemble properly to keep it 100% square. What you reckon how long is it going to be to get all hull parts? I'm just looking at some paper model and it is fenomenal. Level of details is unreal Paper HMS Victory
