bebopsteve reacted to Chuck Seiler in GUNBOAT PHILADELPHIA by Steve.Y - FINISHED - Model Shipways November 11, 2015

I am sure there are some folks here who have done it. I'm not one. I don't even transport myself on a plane if I can help it. Something about sardines.

I cant say for sure on San Diego at this time.. However it would be a perfect thing to do some music gigs down there at the same time. Kind of tie it all together. There is a club in San Diego called Croces Park West that we might play. How is it possible to transport a model on a plane?

That's not bad. I took me a little over a year to do my Philly 1, but that included some down time AND some pretty intense time (5+ hours a day, including 1 all nighter the day before I had to get it to the Fair). Burn out!!!

    You are over a year into the model and you are still working on it. CHECK. You are almost finished. CHECK You are still relatively sane (or at least no less so that when you started). CHECK Congratulations...you are an official certified (certifiable) ship modeler!!!!

    Seriously, though, you are doing great. I regret that I didn't stick with it and build at the same pace. Do you think you will be able to bring it to San Diego next year?

I stained the awning pieces, dry fit. I might epoxy them in tonite.

So Chuck, I am getting the thing done. I am into it a year and 3 months. Crazy huh?

Hey Chuck, got the cannonballs in place..
bebopsteve got a reaction from dgbot in GUNBOAT PHILADELPHIA by Steve.Y - FINISHED - Model Shipways November 3, 2015

Hey Chuck thanks! The rail was already curved from the kit. I used epoxy to secure it. The metal mast ring is ready to install. Hopefully San Diego, but transporting it would be a nightmare lol!. I will try and post some more pics after I place the cannoballs!

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.
