Just a little bit on my side note It's coming along love my daughter love building stuff for her but this is proving to be a difficult build quality wise woods to flexible and rough Can't sand smooth enough without getting into other layers it's literally like six layers of veneer glued together Help it makes the painting spotty and rough I want my boat back lol

No it's a kit Crappy wood Splinters and is vaniered plywood as I can tell its four different kinds of wood pressed together I think my next one may just be a scratch build so I can actually use quality wood Thanks for the compliment I'm trying to do a good job for her

Jparsley reacted to popeye the sailor in Half Moon by popeye the sailor - Billing Boats - 1:40 scale kit September 21, 2015

thanks Augie and Gary....and those who hit the like button. actually, I've been waiting till I get a couple more lights for the Titanic before I work towards finishing her. as it's looking.......I may do just as well to finish her with what I've got. the deck illumination alone should be good enough. as for the problems...I'm glad they rear their heads when they do.........as Mark said, it would be really sad if they were to happen during the rigging process. I've also been doing some tinkering on the side, concerning that silly project I've come up with. issues that I can't explain just yet.

more to come soon

New update guys
Started working on the anchors Saw Nigel's wonderful display and techniques Instead of using the brass for the straps I used chalk board tape I decided on it because one its self adhesive the other is because it's a flat black Second part was on the brass ring I used a double strand embroidery thread I split the strands apart and dipped them in half pva glue and water solution stretched them out to dry I wrapped the brass loop with the stiffened thread I wanted to add a nice little detail of rope wrapped around the cross member in a figure eight Also started putting together my little coranades

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.
