    Thanks Scott - Cutting out and trimming the gun ports has definitely been the toughest part so far!

    Hi Scott. Thanks for the comments, I'm still plugging away at the gun port framing... Are you planning on starting the Hermione soon? Keep me posted if you start a build log, would love to follow it. This site is so helpful. James

    Wasn’t happy with the blue I had chosen so decided to re-do that part using the colour suggestion from another thread here on MSW.

    Framing in the gun ports. 3 down, 27 to go...
  8. jks1981
    Done with hull painting. I purposely didn’t add any filler to the hull so individual planks would show through the paint.

    Ok, now actually adding colour.

    Starting on the deck now, picked the colour based on photos I've found of the boat in it's current state.

    HI hmsgary, will you be making a build log? I'd be interested in watching the progress. I just finished planking and initial hull sanding.

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.
