HMS FLY by cafmodel - 1/48
James H replied to cafmodel's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Some nice, clean machining there, Tom. I'd love to see more of this.- 59 replies

No, what I'm simply saying is that when you want to insert a photo within your post/topic, and definitely within your build logs, it just makes more sense to attach/upload them when you are making your post. It's easier than using third-party hosting sites. This topic isn't referencing use of other images and whether you have the right to use them. That is an entirely different subject and we have other topics here discussing that. This isn't a thread about copyright.

Welcome to MSW. I have total admiration for anyone who can build these in plastic and realistically finishing them. Some real skills there. Hope you'll share some of your stuff with us and perhaps open a build log too?

Hello Algirdas, Great to have you with us, and that is a beautiful finished model! Do you have some photos you can share of it? Maybe in a build log here?

Revenge 1577 by Asat - Amati - 1/64

Your maple deck planking looks immaculate. I really do like that very much, and those hatch coamings really set it off nicely. I'll be following this one.- 65 replies

You're off to a very good start, and of course, learning. You'll never stop learning. Those are very nice kits too. I reviewed them here on MSW. Your work is looking very good. Look forward to seeing the first planking layer sanded down.

It does look pretty impressive. I still can't believe the design of the new kit with cannon ports built into the frames, so no worry about alignment. This is the Facebook group I help to run: https://www.facebook.com/groups/amativictory/ Also, look at these two hulls. Both designed by the same guy (Chris), but over a decade apart. On the left is his 1:72 Victory from Caldercraft, and the right is the 1:64 Amati. The Caldercraft kit is just stunning, so I can't wait to see the Amati when it soon lands here.

That is looking real good, Martin. On the homeward leg now. What's up after this one? Amati Victory?

Do you just need to square the corners of the CNC-cut rebates? I assume they will leave a small round corner. Looking great so far. 🤩- 59 replies

Lovely, clean CNC work there Tom. That will certainly save the modeller time when it comes to building.- 59 replies

Great story and intro! And you served on the Bering Sea, so kudos for that too! 💪 Lovely modelling too, and I can't wait to see your build logs!

I can't wait to see this progress, Tom. How accurate to the real thing will frame construction be, and will it have a full interior?- 59 replies

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.
