    yes hubac....all the photos of the model are shown here...a bit of an art painting a plastic model to give the impression of wood me thinks....don't think i could do it
  3. yancovitch
    yep...happy to find out that he's fine and just too busy but will get back at the right time........
  4. yancovitch
    gads, you must have a super scrapping technique to make it look so even.....looks super...............
  5. yancovitch
    gads, it must be frustrating for neko to look at his creation and not be able to do anything due to worldly demands...even no response to pm's................gee, i hope and pray that he is not ill.....

    i don't know dave...you seem to have a way of making your models so realistically dynamic..like i can actually imagine myself standing on that deck.....
  7. yancovitch
    hmmmm...curious as to how you will design that display case....i have to make one for my confed......will only have glass on three sides to save weight, but i'm not sure how to make the framework yet......
  8. yancovitch
    yea yea yea!
  9. yancovitch
    thanks dave...i appreciate your support.....and thanks for the visit chuck....very grateful..... and yes....she sure is one of a kind.......may be the kit i enjoyed making the most....even though i could have done it more justice, but lacked the patience
  10. yancovitch
    hahaha......
  11. yancovitch
    i would leave it and put a little sign on it saying ''artistic license''
  12. yancovitch
    hahaha....yea....absolutely amazing how a tiny piece can fall to the floor right in front of you and disappears....it's actually kinda scary .....i always figured it was the alien kids practicing abduction, cause they weren't allowed to do humans......anyways, if i don't immediately find it, i use a small manual hokey carpet sweeper, and go over the whole area, and most of the time it works....i empty it out each time, so it's easier to find in the dust etc.....
  13. yancovitch
    merci....and yes....it's one of the reasons i build these ships...............in total awe of the competence and bravery of those men.....
  14. yancovitch
    ok............back on board................is now at the spaghetti stage................next...the belaying.......fraid it will be a ''close enough for jazz'' rig.......hopefully it will look ok.............
  15. yancovitch
    tear tear cut cut saw saw gouge gouge measure measure glue glue carve carve ....you'll make it work!!
  16. yancovitch
    now here's another excellent inspiring build i'll have to keep my eye on....thanks dave for mentioning it to me......
  17. yancovitch
    yes yes yes
  18. yancovitch

  19. yancovitch
    ha...looks better than those on many of the models i've built
  20. yancovitch
    great job.......congrats.........
  21. yancovitch
    haha...quit eating sugar, and most problems will be solved .....at least that's what i'm working on....i have a lot more compassion for drug addicts now
  22. yancovitch
    nice job....looks like you're gonna succeed
  23. yancovitch
    hmmm...notice that you didn't follow the deck camber or curvature at the stern.....maybe the kit was designed that way...either way it will still look fantastic.....
  24. yancovitch
    good idea about leaving off the window panes.....that's what i did on the confed.....not worth the hassle and they don't look good when marred in anyway......looking super.....congrats.......
  25. yancovitch
    ha...yes i found that airfix posting after you made me aware of this.....thanks mucho for info.....actually, i could make the waist deck where i could use it or loose it, but i'll have to check my dimensions....crew height etc. to see if it's feasible, cause i have walkways already installed.......the beat goes on :)....................and naaaaa....my deck configurations are different.....

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.
