Check out the home page forums, I think there is a link to beginners model choices.
There in the help and general discussion forums are lots of good info for new builders to learn.
Once you have a ship kit in mind, use the search tool to check builders forums by ships name.
You may find others who have built the same kit and their blogs may be of help in getting your first build done.
My first solid hull kit was "the phantom" a wood hull that needed only final shaping and veneer planks added.
My first Plank on Bulkhead (POB) was the "The Swift" medium size boat that was not hard to complete.
