    Well worth the effort Mark - looks great!

    I've got this one in my stash too Brian, so I'll pull up a chair and follow along as well.

    Okay, got my seat in the front row! Great choice Bob, and with your planned additions/variations, I'm sure it will be something very special. I like your idea of using Holly for the lower hull, even with extra work that will cause.

    Great work Bob. I look forward to following your Granado build.

    Hi Thistle, What a great project to do with your grandson! Regarding your problem, I bought some aftermarket stuff from MACK products (http://www.mackproductsrc.com) to replace the kit supplied part. I obviously haven't used it yet, so can't comment on how good it is. If you haven't already found them, there is a very good RC forum (http://www.rcgroups.com) where you will find a number of build logs for this boat, some of them quite outstanding. Like MSW, they are a very friendly and helpful bunch. For anyone else following this build, I hope to re-commence work on this next weekend.

    Oh boy! Hey fellas, over here! Come and see! Druxey had a re-do!!! Seriously though Druxey, it's very re-assuring to know that even the Demi-gods have re-dos. Outstanding work all round, Sir.

    Nice to see you back at the bench Danny. Great looking hammock battens and gratings too.

    Congratulations on a truly fine build Nick.

    Gobsmackingly outstanding work on those winches Nils!

    Beautiful deck planking Jack.

    Nice work Alan. Not sure if you know already, but you can buy LoS in a gel form. It makes it very easy to use - one drop in a paint palette and a few drops of water is all it takes - and cleanup is also easy.

    It's all been said already. Just fabulous Glenn and such a treat to watch this come to life before our eyes.

    Lovely work Bob. It's a shame about the gaff with the gaff (pun intended) I'd go with "you're the Captain" in this case - rig the braces any way you like.

    Great work Antony. A really fascinating build.
  19. gjdale
    Deck planking looks lovely Jack - very neat and crisp.
  20. gjdale
    Well done Mark, the hard part is over - making the decision to re-do!
  21. gjdale
    Nice job on the planking Mobbsie. Th Holly waterline looks great!
  22. gjdale
    Looking terrific Bob. You must be starting to consider the next model?
  23. gjdale
    Nice, Mike! Ebony may be a pain for clean up, but nothing looks quite as good.
  24. gjdale
    Kevin, Do you have the Longridge book? It is quite a good reference for the belaying plan.
  25. gjdale
    Fabulous Wim, she looks stunning!

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.
