    I would use regular glue. Take some scrap and do a mockup and see if you like the final result. David B

    Great work. I Like the way you remove the excess wood before you start the shaping process. You have a more delicate touch than I. David B

    Going throught the plans I have come to the point where I have to make a choice. The kit has two ways to finish it. One way the model will be soso. and the advanced way. Which is more difficult but will make a better looking model. I have experimented with the beginner parts and was not very satisfied and was going to try and make my own pieces but the advanced parts are better. This will save me time and a bruising from my sister. I do not have to ask her to go to Hobby Lobby inthe snow and get me dowls and wire. So I will proceed and show what I am doing.. David B

    Nice paint job. David B

    One of the things I found out was there is a lot of metalwork on these vessels. At the original scale they are easy to replicate with a little preactice. And if done right really accents the beauty of the model. David B

    Looking good Marc, How are you going to prevent a repeat? That area looks very fragile. David B

    That book is the bible for this model. David B

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.
