The Coyote has found a new den

Hi everyone, I can recognize a few names here from the eScale website and I know this will be a fun place to be. It would have to be fun because it was built by Al :D I build model ships in 1/700 scale and occasionally do some armour. However there is an Integrale rally car and a Y Wing space ship waiting to be finished. I've been building model ships for over 40 years which means that I like what I am doing and that I am probably approaching senility. :lol:

Brown noser.... :D

Welcome Chris !!

:cheers:

Hey Chris!!
I'm glad you took up my invitation buddy.
For you guys who don't know him, Chris builds the most amazing waterline ships.
And I'm taking the liberty of posting two of my favourites of his here:...

...and this one to give you a sense of the scale he works in:

Believe me these things are tiny and have LOADS of parts. I have one on the bench which is just 350mm lomg (14") and it has well over 400 parts!!!
Anyway, I have asked Chris to head up the newly added ships section, with free range to run it as he see's fit. And I'm pleased to tell you he has accepted.
So if you can, please do yourbest to support him.

Hey Chris, welcome aboard. I kind of wondered when you and your ships would show up.

Welcome Chris

Thanks everyone. Thanks Al for setting this up and asking me to look after the floaty things. I will do my best. I am still learning to navigate around this new goldfish bowl. When I press 'send' I wonder where it will end up this time :lol:

Welcome Chris, glad to see you here. I will say that your work is impressive. I am ready to learn all you want to share.

I have never built a ship but do feel the urge.

Hi Chris, this explains why I can't get my Road Runner Avatar up! LOL

Hey Welcome to the Board Chris! I love ships as it amazes me how they get that much metal to stay afloat! Anyway. I got a couple of Tugs and a Titanic Ship that I'm going to be building one day. Can't wait to see more of your impressive work! I'm ready to learn about this ships myself. 8)

Thank you very much (the way Elvis would say it). I've been listening to Elvis' concert in Hawaii quite a bit lately. I'm going to be calling on you car guys to help me one day. :lol:

Welxome aboard. Some where the vaults I've got a WW1 battleship. I'll be asking for advice.
But don't hold your breath- too many cars to do ATM.

And don't get me started on aeroplanes...........

Very nice we got a little of everything now. Can't wait to see one of your wips.I'm sure it'll be amazing... I really wanna try one of these ships my self

Welcome

Thanks again everyone. Skid's Place has everything: Road Cars, Race Cars, Ships...and adverts for Asian dating service LOL.

Hi Chris, I just joined and might need some help when I get around to building the 2 carriers that are in the closet :D along with my cars and aircraft. John
