    There's nothing worse than wrestling with planks that are too thick! 1mm wide limewood will be wonderful to work with but it does mean that you need to have the bulkheads faired properly so that you don't sand through the planking when trying to smooth out any bulges in the hull. Don't ask me how I know this!

    I think the laser etched deck looks pretty darn good, Bob.

    Wow...what a beautiful paint job! I can't imagine I can't even imagine being able to paint that kind of fine detail without making a big mess of it...

    Wonderful planking job, Bob! Tough call on painting the hull...that pear is beautiful...

    Floor polish...amazing...how do modelers ever figure out all of these unique techniques in the first place?

    You've set the standard of excellence for building the Fifi and the Zulu and your build log is as good as it gets. Both are simply beautiful models with wonderful attention to detail! Congratulations and cheers, BE, and here's wishing you a safe and prosperous New Year. Hopefully, the world will return to some sense of normalcy in 2021 sooner rather than later. All the best,

    Very nice, Grant. Now on to the rigging which was a really fun part of the build.
  22. BobG
    Look great, Yves!

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.
