I'm building the Revell 1/96 USS Constitution and I'm a bit confused about the placement of the Yards and the Studding Sail Booms. If I rig the ship with full sails the Yards are in the raised positions and the Booms are in the Outboard positions. Is this correct?

I found the Constitution a terrific model to build. It is rated as one of the most difficult. If you decide to go ahead with this model, I strongly recommend the build posted on this site by AndyMech. It is loaded with helpful ideas and suggestions. Also, I would be most willing to respond to any questions you may have as you go forward. Have fun modeling!

Great log, Landlubber Mike! I think it will be very helpful to me when I get to that stage in my build.

I am building the 1/96 Revell model of the U.S.S. Constitution and I am thinking about creating furled sails as an alternative to full sails or no sails. I have looked at the various posts here about furled sails that are very helpful. My question is this - when sails are furled, are they all furled or just certain ones on the Constitution? Your thoughts and ideas, please!

Thank you for your response. I have never tried airbrushing and I thought this might be an inexpensive way to try it without a major expense. -

Has anyone had any experience with the Preval Spray System for painting their model? -
I like your very creative approach to my problem. I hope others see this and benefit from your experience. Many thanks!

Thank you, Jack! I checked their site and under "Decaling" they have posted the message - Decaling The category - Decaling - is empty please check back later or search below. I just found cloth flags on their site and that may work!

I'm looking for a source of U.S flag decals to wrap around a flag staff on a 1/95 scale ship. The plastic piece that came with the kit is poorly done and looks worse after it is painted. I've searched online and, so far, I've come up empty. Any ideas?

Thanks Meatloaf109. I'll file that for future reference and perhaps that info will be helpful to others!

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
