hof00 replied to CDW's topic in Non-ship/categorised builds
Looks awesome!! Cheers....HOF. -
Your build is awesome Rod! Some lovely details, I esp. like the ships boat. Just thinking that you are going to need an addition to your house to display them all!! 🙂 Wots next? Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Hi Chap, Looks awesome!! The Lighting just adds another "Dimension" to the overall presence. Cheers....HOF.

Very nice indeed!! To achieve what you have done is certainly a testament to your skills, great individualism!! (I'm still not finished my Bismarck; I'm having trouble with Rigging due to Rotator Cuff not properly healed, (I don't wish to break anything on the ship....), so will try to enlist some assistance from my partners son in the near future.) Looking forward to you Yamato build. Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Hi Rod, Nice "Foundation" work. I have the same "Proxxon" device and cut my own Sanding pads also. The foam idea is great!! (I'll file that one in the gray matter for later use!! 🙂) Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Hi Joe, Thanks for that!! I guess that I am excited about completion to some extent also!! 🙂 Yup, not too much to go, just taking my time. Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Hi Rod, I wondered where you got to.... 🙂 (I've been looking for "Seguin" updates!!) I think that the "Beastie" will be finished soonish. Well, I cannot take a photo of the magazine "Stack" as I have them filed in 3 "Eastlight" ring binders. (One for the build and two for the Bismarck history and warfare at sea history.) (I can take a photo of the last two issues for you before they get filed though. 🙂) More Bismarck build stuff tomorrow. Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Thanks Chap, At this stage, I have a love/hate relationship with it.... 🙂 Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Hi All, Very small update: (Mostly gratuitous photos that are hopefully better than my previous attempts.) So, a little closer to construction completion, Hawse Reel installation, Catapult completion, Etc.... Shortly, I'll get various Eyebolts installed prior to rigging and prepare Deck fixings for Anchor Chains. I need to "Prototype" Accommodation Ladders. Anyway, I'll let the photos do the talking.... 🙂 Cheers.... HOF. Photos:

Thank you, Sir!! A "Low Impact" day today, Aft S/S Skylight/Hawse Reel installation (And I guess I'll try to get some better photos.... 🙂) Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Thank you, Kevin!! Nice rendition of your Bismark!! (I must have a look-see for your build log if there is one....) Yup, you are correct about aspects that could have been improved upon, just one's own criticism I suppose. I'll attempt to get some better photos tomorrow.... 🙂 Cheers and Regards, Harry.

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.
