    Those QGs are really coming together nicely; dare I say museum quality.
  10. KennyH78
    But the model looks great! Looking at your past builds, I am confident that you will be able to pull it off.

    Very glad to hear this news. I have the micro-mark table saw, but have been wanting to upgrade to the Byrnes saw for some time now.
  25. KennyH78
    Chris, the ensign looks great! It is a nice little detail that adds a little more realism to the model. Well done! I may have to try this technique at some point.

    Found a little time to put in some work at the shipyard this evening. I was only able to get 1 strake completed, but I was taking my time to ensure that it was all done correctly and that everything fit tightly. Hopefully, I will have more time tomorrow to add some more strakes to the starboard side.

    Now that I have completed the planking on my Confederacy, it was time to show the Medway longboat some modeling love. As Chuck has suggested in his monogram, I started the planking task by lining off the hull with thin strips of tape. This is where it currently sits. I think I will walk away for a little bit and come to give it a second look with a fresh set of eyes. Edit: looked at the bow again after typing this post and saw that the lines had to adjusted.

    Can’t wait to print out and cut out all of the required parts and build this little model myself.
  30. KennyH78
    Finished up the starboard side planking tonight. Next up is the tedious task that everyone loves to do; sanding it all smooth. It’s not the best planking job, so no close up pictures; but I am happy with it and learned a lot from the whole experience.
  31. KennyH78
    Amazing, your design skills are top notch @Chuck!
  32. KennyH78
    Enjoy your much needed vacation. The Capstan Project is looking good so far and I eagerly await the opportunity to build one should you choose to release a tutorial.
  33. KennyH78
    Truely amazing work, Glen! This has me wanting to attempt a SIB build although I probably won't be able to achieve anything is spectacular as your build.
  34. KennyH78
    I will definitely sign up if you do a course @Chuck I already have 3 3D printers (2 FDM, 1 resin) and a laser machine. The painting skills is where I will need the most instruction, 😂
  35. KennyH78
    Vaddoc, that is very generous of you. I may have to take you up on that. The work you are doing on lofting the boat is amazing.
  36. KennyH78
    She's a beaut, JJ! Very impressive model; can't wait to see what chapter 3 has in store.

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.
