Well I’ve subscribed, you guys are a bad influence, got my build thread done. Just need to find room to build it and then keep it. Though because of how I want to pay I have to start from issue 2 and buy issue 1 from the shops. no idea why, but they said if I had a problem to wait till I got my first few issues and order one as a back issue.

Sounds like a very odd way of doing things.

Hi, Andy, thats what happened to me. I just bought the first issue from WH Smith. I am going to wait until I have some more issues(I was told 3 weeks from the date that I subscribed, so that should be week begining 14/02/2011) and I should receive issues 2 & 3. When I start, I will be putting my build diary on here. Martin

Well I’ve cancelled the Endeavour, after many chances. I got fed up with them. Phoned them up to be told my issues are not dispatched because there waiting for payment. Erm but I pay by invoice. It’s a shame it didn’t work out because as I’ve said I’d love to build a ship like this. But I’m sure there wooden kits online I can buy. Just means more money to the railway build.

"Another one bites the dust" Quite right Andy,and here you were going great guns as well, but it sounds like you have been pissed around,so, I don't blame you, but don't despair, have a look around,you might get a nice model on Ebay..cheap ..?.. (it does happen!!),keep on looking if you are still interested in this type of model, perhaps you can have a look at what Artisina Latina have got,failing all that...put the 'finances' into your railway like you said...I am!!....Dave

Wow, another one gone, at this rate I will be the only one to finish this. You guys can have fun watching me try to pull together a "museum quality" model from a very ordinary set of parts. Steve

wow, just 3 of us left. I have to agree that the parts supplied are not always great and supply can go a bit pear shaped at times. I must say tho, I'm 3/4 of the way through scratchbuilding a capstain, and feeling quite happy with myself as its working out better than i thought. As long as it is more pleasure than pain, I'll continue, but it was a close call with the hull planking and shaping. I didnt enjoy that. ::)Good luck to you , Phil , Dave and Andy, I hope whatever else you do goes well and is enjoyable.
