    Very nice build!

    Looks good Norway! You're getting there I'm also not always happy with close-ups from my model...something to work on in the future haha.

    The Tanganyika looks more like wood though. I'm still not sure if I like that über clean look of boxwood

    ìt looks wonderful!

    I diluted some black paint, that worked fine. The only difference with the indian ink is...that diluted paint dries somewhat hard up. And with the ink the line keep more flexibel. Thank you!

    Thanks Lazy Saint!

    They look tight enough 👍

    I think a lot of the builders here would be potential costumers. I would

    That's amazing! I myself have a background in CNC but never worked with a 4 axis mill. The result is really beautiful! Especially at that scale. Maybe make a business out of it

    Really nice! You have somewhat a kit collection now

    Small update...installed the Fore gaff, main gaff and driver boom. There is a lot more to learn regarding rigging...like which knots etc. But that takes time I guess. Nice to discover which line is for what part to move or hold still.

    Your doing great Norway! Just step by step...I still didn't figure it out where those hanging pendants are for 😅, well...it will become clear at some point

    Thanks Retired Guy! And the others for the likes 🙂

    Yes I did not start with the kit yet. I live in the Netherlands but purchased the kit at Cornwall Model Boats. If that is the case like you said then I will send an email to CMB for a replacement. Thanks for tuning in!

    Thanks Lazy Saint 🙂

    I've sent a mail to GMB when and if the stock was being refilled. This was more then a month ago I think. They said that the manufactorer did not have any stock anymore, so they didn't know when a new delivery was comming. GMB is great by the way...not meant as a diss The ships that you chose have also different scales, so that is maybe something that can help you with your descision

    The font is probably not accurate...but much better then the original letters that came with the box...don't really understand why Caldercraft supplied such letters as this:

    Finally named her...🙂 Used tape to measure the position. And found letters at Cornwall Model Ships at the right size and color. Afterward I applied a thin layer of varnish.

    It turned out really beautiful!
  22. Ronald-V
    It's a really nice build! I like the close-ups, your work is really precise Is the hull planking the same wood, but just with other finishes on it?
  23. Ronald-V
    Tnx Norway! And the others for the likes 😁

    Mounted some "stays"

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.
