    Great news, Mark. All the best on your road to recovery and good health!

    Very nice work, Harry!

    Very nice! Chris continues to make innovative advances in ship modeling so that more modelers can be successful and enjoy the hobby more easily at the level they choose.

    Glad to see that you're still making progress on this wonderful model, Jeff. It's a lovely model! I know the feeling of "hitting the wall" on a build. I've currently done just that as well on my Pen Duick build. The rigging instructions are all but useless and I've been having difficulty getting motivated to continue to struggle through it.

    Wonderful, precise work, Glenn, and, of course, your build log is informative and a pleasure to read.

    Well, I'd be quite happy if I had built those models. As the old saying goes: "One man's rubbish is another man's treasure! I do, however, fully understand feeling off nearly "launching a model against the wall" or, at the very least, giving it a Viking funeral!

    Your models are absolutely stunning! Congratulations!

    Thank you, Gaetan! I'll enjoy reading over your build logs. I'm sure I'll be impressed and learn a ton as well!

    Fantastic model. Well done! You should post some photos in the Gallery if you haven't already done so. It's such a beautiful model.

    Great photos of your build!

    I wish the USA would convert to metric but I doubt it will ever happen and, most certainly at my age, I'll never see it. So, I guess it won't matter much in the end since we'll all end up 6 feet or 1.8288 meters under!

    Amazing! I'd love to see some photos of those huge models you have built, Gaetan. Could you post a few photos of them?

    Really great job of detail painting, David!

    Maybe try a little test area first to make sure it works and doesn't stain or cause you other problems.
  15. BobG
    Looking great, Tom!
  16. BobG
    Really well done, Tom!

    Nice job, Rich. With a little bit of filler and some careful sanding she'll be ready for some paint. It's always exciting to get to this point.

    Hi Harry, I have used CA debonder but I believe that acetone and nail polish remover work also. Good luck!

    This is a wonderful looking model, Will. I love these fishing vessels and I'll be following along on your build with great interest. Good luck!

    I just read through your log, David. Great job so far on this impressive model! How has your experience been with Caldercraft compared to Amati and Vanguard?
  21. BobG
    I love these working vessels. Looking forward to following your build. Good luck!
  22. BobG
    Wonderful work, Derek, and an excellent, informative build log as well.

    Floyd, I got liver of sulphur on Amazon. Here's a link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004PLZ4SS?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-ypp-rep_ypp_rep_k0_1_10&crid=1K34ZJ9IDH5N6&sprefix=liver+of+s

    Nice work, Harry. It looks very good!
  25. BobG
    Well then, in that case, I'd say that many of us have a lot of models with plenty of character!

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.
