    Definitely an outstanding model Frank! The flags set her off nicely!

    Congratulations on reaching this milestone Ulises. Well done. Now the real fun begins?

    I like the final solution that you came up with for the canvas-covers Tom. She's looking better all the time.

    Until you find "just one more little detail" to add to her Dennis! Those boys will love it!

    It's hard to make anything decisive out of the photos in the plans, but if it were me, I think I'd solder the strop, or drill a hole for both ends of the strop, for the deadeye right onto the chainplate.

    Amazingly clean and precise as usual Ed! Beautiful!!

    Congratulations! Very nice John! It makes for an excellent display!

    Very nice work Ken. I can foresee using your techniques for the gun-deck and main-hatchway construction when I get to mine, - if you don't mind of course. On a side-note, do you know of a soldering station that will work for the Weller W100P-3? So far I've only been able to find the 40 W variable ones, or will that work for lower-power jobs using the 100 W iron?

    Looks like you must have worn him out, and he's going to take a nap now, after removing the optivisors.

    Nice job on the home-made cannon and hardware Grant!
  11. GLakie
    They turned out good Mike, despite their small size. Nice work!
  12. GLakie
    That part looks like it was a nightmare to build, but it seems you've got a handle on it. Nice work Keith!
  13. GLakie
    Amazing work Grant!
  14. GLakie
    Those are some really great pics of her Pat! Nice idea with Cook's map on the base!
  15. GLakie
    Really beautiful work Gaetan! The photography is mind-blowing!

    Her Majesty looks mighty proud setting in her stand Nenad!

    Congrats Ulises!
  18. GLakie
    Thanks Henry. Never heard that term used before. You're a wealth of knowledge sir! Thanks again!
  19. GLakie
    Sounds like a lot of research going on Henry. Question - What does the term "marled down" mean? Roll On
  20. GLakie
    All those "fiddly bits" are turning out nice Piet. Well worth the extra effort!
  21. GLakie
    You've got your workshop fixed up real nice Dave. Complete with the all-important fridge for your favorite beverage. Very cool! Nice work with the carvings!
  22. GLakie
    Well I DID say "almost". That'll make a beautiful stand base!
  23. GLakie
    Wow! It's almost a shame to cover that grain up with a ship!
  24. GLakie
    Very nice Frank! Finishing touch?
  25. GLakie
    Sorry to hear that Dave! I know it's tough losing a pet. Been there all too many times myself.

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.
