    I think he means the ones that came with kit. They are not blocks but instead sound like bullseyes but made out of wood. Used for leading rigging through them and not actual blocks.

    That looks excellent. I have found that using some 90% alcohol on a paint brush helps remove some stain and lighten up some areas. chuck

    One is manufactured by a legit Chinese mfg (CAF). CAF does not pirate or copy designs for their kits. The other mfg distributed through DD in Canada is ModelShipDockyard. Also a Chinese company. MSD and DD sell and pirate intellectual property and often steal the work of other mfg’s for profit. They are on our banned list of mfg’s. So its an easy choice. Chuck

    I am busy until Mid May but maybe I will create some new designs to offer along with those initially offered. And try to breath some new life into this group on beginner carving...
  31. Chuck
    They are all here.... Its another tab above called "Tutorials and discussions for the carving group" https://modelshipworld.com/forum/85-tutorials-and-discussion-for-the-carving-group/ And by the way.....Carving blanks are actually still available in the Syren store. Chuck

    Looking good!!!
  33. Chuck
    Syren does in fact have cleats and other fittings...Many suppliers do. Chuck
  34. Chuck
    I wouldnt recommend doing that. Best to start with the wales as they establish the run of planking above and below them. If you start with the ports it is all to easy to establish the incorrect run of planks. Once the wales are established, Line off the hull below it....or plank the hull above it and between the ports. But lining off is the best practice regardless. See the many tutorials posted on this site. Chuck

    Looking really good. Dont sell yourself short, this is not an easy beginner model. Chuck

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.
