    Thanks to everyone for following along! I'm slowly coming along with my modeling skills. As you can see, I really like seeing boats/ships that have been in the elements. That's just my personal taste. Lou - I think your idea for the base is a great one! It would keep in theme with the boat. Who knows what the future will wash up?

    I added my base for stability and completion on my Jenny.

    Looking forward to seeing this one come together!

    My condolences go out to the family. Smooth sailing to you, kind Sir.

    Your bomber is coming along nicely. I look forward to seeing this once the wings are added. I'm not sure if you mentioned it in your entries, are you using an airbrush or sprays and bottles on your projects?

    Wow! Beautiful work on the decking and skylight! This really is a beauty.
  31. Fright
    Your Bluenose look great. I love how the sealer brought out a rich color to the deck.
  32. Fright
    I love to see boats with some weathering on them. Like Yves said, "it has a soul".
  33. Fright
    That is some beautiful work on the decking!
  34. Fright
    Congratulations on this build!

    I really appreciate all of the kind comments that you have posted. I am always at awe with the amount of talent I see in MSW and, without sites like these, I do not believe that my modeling would have come this far. Many thanks for contributing your comments, thoughts, tips and projects to help others achieve their goals. Here's to all of our upcoming projects - Cheers! p.s. And may our other partners never find out those additional costs that make our dreams come true. 😉

    Thank you all for the feedback and kind words on this inexpensive kit by Lindberg. Here are a few more photos of my Jenny.
  37. Fright
    I have finally reached the end on my 'Jenny' build using Lindberg's 1:60 scale shrimp boat. Finished with all of my rigging. The netting is tulle that was dyed a dark green. I tied line around the netting and sowed the red 3mm beads (floats) to the seam (tickle chain) in the tulle. The netting is attached to the drag doors on each side of boat. Forest is at the helm in the stern section of the boat. Lt. Dan is sitting atop the boom holding on to his support rope. A big thanks goes out to my very talented wife, Chris, for creating Lt. Dan's wheelchair that is at the stern of boat. S

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.
