    thanks for the comments people...i have not used any varnish at all on this build and the hull looks fine.....I may try a little matt varnish on her hull just to bring out the wood a little but tbh i dont think it needs it.

    Cheers Thistle....this kit has a lot of detractors, but to me it is just a model that needs building...it may not be historically accurate but I dont care....the finished ship looks fine and will join my other corel builds....I am halfway through corels endeavour as we speak...

    Apart from some rigging hanks and maybe the flags....Unicorn is FINISHED.

    a few of us greyhound veterans will be following you with a good deal of nostalgia srenner....you will find this kit frustrating and we all know the temptation to give up on her but keep with it.....when finished it is a nice little ship and as we greyhound builders look back with affection and suddenly all the frustration and angst was worth it.

    like Old Collinwood said earlier....a few of us have completed this kit and you can end up with a good looking model.......keep at it and good luck

    cheers Alan.....i dont have an issue with the accuracy of any model...it is just a hobby for me.....I have completed several corel kits and I bought this one for £15 ......i try to use what comes with the kit to see what results are produced......I think Unicorn looks great even if you think it is a poor example.....in terms of accuracy that may well be the case, but as a model I think it looks ok and that is why I build....
  25. harlequin
    Unicorn nearing completion.....the last remaining yards need final rigging and that will be it....

    ah Greyhound...takes me back to my build.
  30. harlequin
    Unicorn has progressed quite well....all the yards are now in position, just the final few rigging lines are required to secure.
  31. harlequin
    not done much yet but will let you know when i progress a little....
  32. harlequin
    a little more rigging on Unicorn
  33. harlequin
    a very nice build so far...

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.
