I thought i would start a thread here as i have just registered. I spotted the magazine in the shops when it first came out but i was not in a position to start buying it. I am now so i am going to buy up a collection of magazine's from Ebay to start with. I have contacted the publishers and i can start a subscription from the last magazine i will get which will be issue 55 (apparently actually i can start from issue 30). I am still able to back order some magazines to fill the gaps and then i will just have to hunt down the others on Ebay or here.
I have built other models, both plastic models and flying ones so i am not totally new to the world of models and i also have a few radio control cars so i have a bit of experience with them.
I plan to pick up a reasonable model boat from ebay to keep me busy until i finish one myself. There are regularly Flower Class Corvettes come up and i fancy one of them to start me whilst i build my own. I plan to slowly build a all bells and whistles corvette myself using the Great Little Ships detailing sets and fit it with sounds and things to make it working.
I also have plans to put sounds in my Bismark along with some running lights and maybe even a smoke generator.

Welcome ollieholmes, need any, help just ask. Take a look at peoples build diaries and Markus Radio Control Corner for inspiration. Markus is the wiz on the electronics and r/c front.

I will also have the advantage of having seen everyone elses builds before i start mine, thats the cunning plan.
Im actualy thinking of fitting out the hull for all the radio gear etc before planking the hull, does that sound sensible to others?
I will also start a thread here when i begin work on my Flower Class Corvette. I may in time do a short forcaste version to.

Hi OllieH Welcome and see my build thread in other models for Snowberry, not to be confused with this puppy that keeps impersonating my Bismarck, which is nearing the half way point.
