Post by: kevin547n on September 02, 2016, 09:29:09 am

Good morning everyone


I am Kevin from Bridgwater Somerset aged 58, I retired form the Royal Navy  few years ago having spent 34 years before the mast (most of the in Submarines)


I enjoy static builds, presently still doing the 1/72 HMS Victory, but yesterday I ordered the SD14 cargo ship kit, i like the scale, as it allows for the the detail should you wish to put it in


I would like to start a Log here for the SD14, which will be built as three different sections and various states of repair, (well thats the early ideas that I have and use some LED lighting within
