    I have most of their Sovereign of the Seas Kit and I would say its comparable to the quality of most other kit manufacturers out there. As mentioned above there are no plans, just instructions.

    Hi Greg. This is still the current log. I have neglected the model for some time now and it sits here on the shelf awaiting my attention. I will be back to it soon I think. I've been focusing more on my other hobbies lately and perhaps secretly working on another model ship. Thanks, Jeff

    I use the vinegar method also and it works great. I soak the photo etch for about 20 minutes.

    AL makes one also, its pricey but you may be able to find a deal on ebay. Caldercraft was working one one but I'm not sure when, or if it will ever be released.

    Thanks for the suggestion Janet. I think I get the idea. Would you happen to have a diagram of the suggested jig, or a picture?
  18. JeffT
    Good advice. I learned something today.

    I'm starting to buy into the balsa technique.

    I just place a soft cloth between the hull and the stand I use to keep it safe.

    Beautiful work on the hull.

    You should be able to get the dremel collets from amazon. The small one that came with my dremel works well for small bits. I'm not sure about the size though, maybe a 1/32?

    Thanks. It has been a challenge every step of the way.

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.
