    How does your son feel about varnish? Without some kind of clear finish, the raw wood will become a dust magnet. I think that redheart would really be great with a deep gloss finish. A rubbed oil finish might nice too but I can't see how you could get all of the surfaces rubbed. That is a nice looking hull you are building. I love hull shapes and it easy to spot something out of order. It looks like you have got it right. can't do better than that.

    Ken Thanks for your quick reply to my question. I am new to this forum and it has taken me some time to get my bearings and to navigate all the topics. I have located your build thread and several more that I will read front to back for help. I have just placed my order for this kit. If you are not aware of it, Model Expo is currently (through April 19) offering 50% off on anything in the catalog. You might want to stock up for future pojects.

    Hi Gary. I guess I got here a little late. I just joined this forum a few days ago but it was great to be able to read your log from the start. You have produced a beautiful model and I am sure to be referring to this log many times in the future. Jerry

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.
