G'day Denis What a session you had! Simply incredible from 5he marvelous stained glass windows to the cap rails and everything in between. Just a thought though, I've been going through YouTube and I've found a very interesting idea regarding CA glues. When you use CA or in Australia it's called Supaglue, and if you sprinkle baking soda over the CA then clap the pieces together and then sprinkle baking soda in the join, the join became super hard and the gap can be wiped off and then sanded to get a very smooth join. This will only work if the object is going to be painted. Happymodelling Greg

Denis has hit the nail on it's head with this statement! You are too bloody fussy. The slightly messy paintwork only shows up in when you blow up the photo. At your scale no one will see it. Havagooday mate. Greg

G'day Nils There are no words in our English Dictionary that could truly express how great your details are in this incredible model. There might be in the German's dictionary dictionary, but I doubt it. The Forecastle deck looks so real, it could actually work! Goodonyamate Greg

G'day Denis Look good mate, the paint work is top notch! Something about the red and green rings a bell to me, let me see,...... oh yes! Mario Bros! Now, wasn't there a large fish called Bubba in the game? Mmmm...... Are you planning to do a scene from that famous Nintendo 64 game when Bubba eats Mario? Lol Looking for your next post mate, keep up the great work. And I'll will keep on guessing what you are planning. Havagooday Greg

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.
