    You are off to a great start. I think that will turn into a great looking model. Keep it up.
  2. Chuck
    I dont think so with this theme. Sorry. But you cant switch to Uniform theme below in the footer.
  3. Chuck
    We know....but other comments that were deleted werent like that. They were just complaining that the mashed potatoes were too lumpy. No worries. You had a very constructive comment. And we were getting to it. Thanks
  4. Chuck
    Just think.....In a week you will never remember what the old stuff looked like, LOL. Hey you kids......get off my lawn!!!!
  5. Chuck
    Yes it looks very good indeed. Well done. And yes all of those tiny uprights for the fancy rail are different. They angle aft and that changes with each one.
  6. Chuck
    working on it.....lots still to do and after many hours we are still tweaking. So please refrain from jumping the gun with the usual this sucks comments....Not you Cathead ..........but I am referring to the usual gang of members who do this before every update is finalized. I have already deleted a few such comments which arent helping at all. Just switch themes for now thanks. Its literally the same half dozen or dozen cranks that do this with every change we make. We have a pool going with the moderators containing the usual suspects.....I got ten bucks on one guy to see who will complain first before we finish.
  7. Chuck
    There are two other selections but keep in mind we will be switching out that image on this theme every few months to make it interesting. Bottom footer to change themes.
  8. Chuck
    It certainly is...that looks very good. Try and even out the sheer though. It has some dips and needs to be a nice even curve. A graceful line before you put the cap rail on.
  9. Chuck
    Sorry Carl, not all themes are available any longer.....we will see what we can do. If anything.

    We already added such tags to other builds and subjects. Everyone should use them. They are not in red like the Ancre tags but are black instead. Clicking on any tag will have the same effect. We (the staff) have to do this manually on every build log. So please patience. We are also removing some nonsense tags that members have used that are useless to the function......such as "wood" "Scratch" or "first" and the list goes on and on. Chuck
  11. Chuck
    Kent Thanks, when are you gonna start that build log!!!! I would love to see what you are working on.
  12. Chuck
    They unfortunately discontinued there line of thread in most sizes that was used for rope making. They used to make sizes 100 thru 10 in white and ecru. Now you have to hunt for them on ebay second hand.
  13. Chuck
    we are doing some forum freshening and will be trying out some things. So it should get interesting in the short term...... All for your MSW browsing and modelling pleasure!!!! If something doesnt work we will scratch it. Chuck

    How is chapter 3 coming along?
  15. Chuck
    Lovely work Gerard. You are using cherry wood correct? But your wood doesnt seem to darken as much over time. What finish do you use on the wood? It might have been mentioned once before but I couldnt find it. Chuck
  16. Chuck
    That is looking very good. Nice work on those deadeyes.
  17. Chuck
    Grant.....we want an update😃
  18. Chuck
    Paul....hows this model coming along?
  19. Chuck
    Any updates
  20. Chuck
    Simon...i know you are very far along with this if almost finished. Got any pictures for the group?
  21. Chuck
    Just came across this again....Maury are you gonna keep going at some point. Its a fine looking model.
  22. Chuck
    Actually I am still actively trying to find all the Ancre topics so I can manually add the tags. I will add that one to the list. Thanks Chuck
  23. Chuck
    Beautiful work. You are doing an exceptional job on the model. Your careful and crisp workmanship is clearly shown in the results.
  24. Chuck
    We have a lot folks here at MSW who love Ancre monographs. I certainly do. Many builders even specialize their hobby and only build these types of French models. Their is a large contingent of Ancre fans out there. Did you you know, that clicking on the red tag "Ancre" in the title of any build log that has one will instantly bring up a list of all of the build logs and pertinent topics based on Ancre monographs? If you see this tag anywhere on MSW, clicking on it will instantly bring up the list. We have tried to make it easier for you if you are one of these builders to find all Ancre -related content. Tags are a powerful tool when used properly. Clicking on any tag will bring up a list of all topics that also contain the words in that tag. We will try and create red tags in the topic titles to make it easier for you to find popular subjects throughout MSW. Its just another way we can make it easier and more enjoyable to find stuff. Are you an Ancre enthusiast? Give it a try!!!! Find any red tag that says "Ancre" and click on it. I have added one to this very topic. Just scroll up and click on the tag. I hope you find this helpful and it sees more Ancre build logs being created based on the many wonderful monographs available. 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.
