    Another superlative figure Alan. Great job. The lighting is much better in the last group of photos, brings out the details better.

    The darker brown definitely makes the tunic stand out more. Nice job.
  19. Jack12477
    Double Wow ! Amazing !
  20. Jack12477
    As a general rule, whenever I get a Model Shipways kit I throw out the included rigging thread and purchase the equivalent size SYREN thread from Chuck. Works and looks a whole lot better. Great looking model, Sal. Nice job 👏
  21. Jack12477
    I know ! I was on the "bleeding edge" of it as a programmer for 40 years with "Big Blue"
  22. Jack12477
    Oh oh! You really plunged down a rabbit hole ! 😊😉🙃🙂 ! Nice looking start.

    My problem is the tenants in the apartments on the street behind me and 3 houses to the east of me; they leave cans of cat food on their front stoop for the feral cats. So there's a whole colony of them in the woods across from the apartments. When my 3 Corgis were alive the cats would not come through our fence, even tho the Corgis just looked at them and sorta said "ho hum that must be a cat! ho hum" and never gave chase. We've tried for years to get the Town to do a "capture, neuter, release" but that seems to be above their intellectual capacity.

    They lay in ambush under my dwarf Japanese Maple (Acer) right next to the bird bath waiting for a small song bird to stop for a drink/bath then leap up onto the bird bath. I've see 3 different feral cats 🐈 catch Sparrows, Finch, Nuthatches, et al. Repel All spray works sometimes but I finally had to purchase a couple rolls of Scat-Cat Mats from a garden supply and lay them out under the trees.

    My wife had that same condition but only in one hand. She had outpatient surgery to correct it, in-out same day no hospital stay no skin grafts. Now she's fine, no relapse. Consult a really good hand surgeon OC. Get several medical opinions.
  29. Jack12477
    I think everyone is trying to stock up before the tariffs go into effect. People around here are stocking up on cans of tuna fish (Vietnam) olive oil & pasta (Italy), etc. ABC had a piece on it this morning. Glad to hear tho that business on your end is booming.

    Photography looks good to me, Javlin. If you're not happy with the background, get some tri-fold presentation board, foam or card stock, from Michaels. It come in a variety of sizes, e.g., 36x48, and different colors, i recommend white as it will help fill in the shadows.

    Forgot to ask you, Craig, was the cart large enough for the haul of all the prizes etc ? 🙄 😉
  32. Jack12477
    Congrats on your awards, Craig. Also for your raffle prizes.

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.
