errr... hello and hull help please
« on: October 06, 2009, 05:34:57 pm »
I'm new here and am just about to start my firest scratch build and I've jumped in the deep end,

the boat i have picked is the BIO hesperides (ice breaker/Antarctic research ship) and it has a fairly complex hull, as i said i am new to scratch builds so what would be the best method to build the hull?


thanks,  Eddie the idiot

looking at that i think the hesperides may be a bit too much for a fist hull, ive also got a set of plans for the oil challenger i think that may be a better starting point (only one curve on it and thats the bow)


thanks eddie the idiot
