You have asked a good question. There are quite a number of model fourms out there today on the net. For example, one that I am a member of and highly recommend is
Warship Models Underway! Message Board. This board is for those who enjoy warship models. This board is run by Kurt Greiner and he asks you all to remember that his discussion board is for Warship models, not a general place to post photos of any boat or ship model you happen to have. While he does enjoy well built civilian models too, he tries very hard keeping his website and forum on topic. Even if you do not have a warship model, you can read the posts and learn alot about the hobby.
If you are a member of another board, we hope that you continue to support them.
MODEL MARINA DISCUSSION BOARD This board is set up to cover the "Scale" R/C model boat and ship hobby. This covers scale fishing type boats to scale tugs. Scale model warships are also an item that even I have a few projects on the building tables. I don't tend to be as strict to the type of models as long as they are scale in nature.
