Hi all! New shipmate onboard
 

A buddy of mine changed hobbys and gifted me his barely started MS Bluenose kit with all kinds of extras.

I've built a dozen R/C airplanes years ago, I still have some in progress, but its been 10+ years now since I've touched them.

I always wanted to try something with more detail, and I can see that ships have that without question.

Don't know how good of and idea it was but I picked up another MS Bluenose kit off Ebay. At least I can redue something if I botch it up. Extra parts never hurt when I was building airplanes!

Thanks for the links! Nice reading to get my feet on solid ground.



Thanks for the welcome, I'll be back from time to time over the next few month to get pointers I'm sure.
