Hi All My first wooden ship model and I am told it is going to be difficult oh well living in the sticks here it is not easy to find kits and parts this model is a partworks kit by Modelspace which I collected over a period of two years I started building then stopped due to work comitments,closed my business of 27years renovated and sold my house relocated to another town,retired and renovated the house I live in now then started building again so after unpacking the well wrapped model and sorting out a workspace this is what she looked likeRegards Trev  | ||
