Permission to come aboard
« on: January 17, 2016, 12:01:36 pm »
Greetings All
Phil from Poole here.  Been a guest viewer of this site for some time, and thought it was time to wander up the gangway and come aboard. Been a modeller for ever, mainly military armour, aviation, and figures. But turn my hand to most things.  Always fancied a largish scale ship and through the miracle that is Fleabay the dock yard currently have three 'projects' on the slips;
A 1/72 Matchbox 'Flower' bought in running condition but stripped down to component 'modules' for systems upgrade and refurb of finish 
A 1/96 Deans Marine HMS Cossack as a fitted hull with all components in their packaging
And the biggy,
A 1/96 HMS Illustrious currently A hull, all Simar mouldings, and drive train, and loads of reference documentation.


The Flower will be first up between other projects. Hope to have it on the water in the spring
