Over the years, there have been a variety of posts that have highlighted some amazing private collections of model ships that span many different scales, styles, and locations. Every time I see a picture, I'm fascinated with what others build or collect, how they display them, etc. I also find myself on occasion trying to go back and find certain photos when looking for ideas or references but often they tend disappear into the sands of time.
I thought I'd open a thread focused on providing people who are interested with links to various model ship collections that are documented with on-line photos. To simplify the experience for people, I've been experimenting with a new feature on the on-line "Photobucket" application called stories which provides a single link to series of photos and notes. In the following post, you'll see my first attempt to begin sharing ships in my collection with photos as well as notes and comments. The nice thing about this will be that as I add ships or get requests, I can simply modify the story and everyone will have access.
No idea if folks will like this idea (vs. embedding links into a thread) but if you do and have a collection you'd like to share, feel free to post it here so we can all enjoy what we've built and/or collected with others who may have an interest.
Your comments and ideas to make this a better thread are always appreciated.
