Your planking is looking good! I hope to use that method on my ship, but I won't need to add filler blocks, as she is a solid hull. As far as your question, I don't know. As for Naval Action, I have looked at it, and it looks to be of great quality. I do think that if I got it it would absorbe a lot of my time, but I'm still not sure.

Nice start! I've got MS bluenose plans, so maybe I'll follow in your footsteps someday. I hope you don't mind if I follow!

The rigging looks great Sal! Are you planning to use the working sheaves to change the angle of the spars for a realistic and dramatic affect? If you do, I'm sure you'll make it look great!

The anchor looks great! Nice method! -
Yes, as well as add a second hole to simulate a sheave. I will look up block tumblers!

Slowly but surely sanding and filling. This morning I modified one of my kit supplied blocks. It turned out better than it was before I worked with it, so that's a plus! When I get home, it's back to filling and sanding! That last photo is my favorite side of it.

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.
