Smile Greetings from Poland!

Hi!

I'm new to this hobby but I have 4 years of experience with plastic models.
I decided to try paper models because I've always been fascinated about warships of the Pacific War(hence my nickname). Worst thing in plastic ships is painting, especially camouflages. Thankfully, paper ships are painted - that makes them really enjoyable in making. I can say that 'cause I'm currrently working on my first model, USS Ward DD-139 from JSC in 1/400 scale. Gallery soon!

I'm also the person behind the camera in some of the Zenon1947's(grandfather) galleries. He's not the best photographer.

Kacper

Sure I will. That's obvious . It's way better than painting USN's Measure 32, Design 7D camouflage on USS West Virginia.

Looking forward to your USS Ward. Are you going to do at least the mini sub as well?

Hello and welcome. Take a look around this site and you’ll find all sorts of information on building ships, and just about everything else imaginable.
Once your done I’d like to see some photos of the finished model.

Yes, but probably later, along with I-16.
