New member with more ambition than skill

James here, just joined so saying a quick saying hello.

Having wanted a layout for many a year, I've finally just made a start on a 5-3-3 inglenook. I'll post some details in the small layouts section where it'll probably soon become apparent that my skills don't quite match my ambitions.

The best way to develop skills is to do something.  So, we'll see what you have.  Good idea to start small, that way you will be able to get something running fairly quickly.

Welcome James

We are all waiting to see what you have going on - keen interest and plenty of encouragement here!

It's a learning process. If it doesn't work out first go, redo it.

Welcome, and good luck.

Hi James, welcome to the club.

Thanks everyone.

Although I've only just made a start on the layout (Tescbury's Storage & Distribution in the Small Layouts, Planks and Micros section) I've been a long-term reader and watcher of various railway modelling mags and youtubes, so am hopefully armed with at least some idea of what I'm doing and how to go about it. Time will probably be the judge of that, so please, wish me luck  :)
 

Hi James and welcome to the club.Good luck with your new layout and let us see some photos.

Hello James.  Welcome to the club.  Looking forward to seeing your small layout develop.

You're not the only one! My modelling skills don't match my ambition either, but don't worry, we all have our strengths.

And welcome aboard.

Thanks spurno , col.stephens and peterm

I'll add pics into my thread in the Small layouts section.

Welcome James - hope you enjoy yourself on here.

I had to "Google" modelling skills to see what they are.  I now realise why I didn't know !!!

 

Welcome aboard…. looking forward to seeing you enjoy the modelling process.  I do…

Post up and we will do our best to help out.

cheers

Haha, very good Petermac  

Thanks Marty
