    Is the metal degreased? The glue to old?
  2. Baker
    Yes. And https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/

    Good job, if you ever want to start working at 3M. I will provide good references for you 😉

    After working at a glue factory (3M) for 38 years. Heated acetone has the best chance. Isopropyl alcohol certainly not. But DONT use this heated aceton on your model. Very flammable and very bad for the model 🧐😉
  5. Baker
    Maybe a little bit. Bet who will notice this on the finished model 😉.

    Great start 👍

    neatly painted 👍 Take your time and be patiënt. And you will build a great model. Some examples about mold making old scool. Drawings. a airfix spitfire. a mold , the cutty sark from revell The large brush is the extractor plate of the mold. These extractors are sometimes used for the little holes in models. and sometimes cause the annoying round holes in the parts that need to be filled in i went to school to be a mold maker. and when i graduated in the early 80's there was a global economic crisis and i ended up at GM building Opels. And so i started making plastic models 😉

    This kit was designed 50 years ago. back then there were no computers, no 3D printers. everything was designed and drawn manually first with pencil and then with ink. each pin in your model means drilling an extra hole in the mold each hole in your model is an extra pin or "ejector" in the mold. in those days. And for this model count at least a year to design and build the mold, with a whole team of experts.

    Normaly the schrouds go first. But if you do the schrouds first, they hinder the application of the running rigging. And if you do the running rigging first, they hinder the application of the schrouds. Niet gemakkelijk he...( Eeklo language 😇) Looking at the links in your signature, you have a lot of experience for this 👍

    I've been working on galleons for a while. This looks nice on a model. But I don't believe at all that this was the case in reality.

    A very small update Mary has been sanded outside the house. And no further progress The room has been reorganized and repainted. There is more order. And the big clean-up has begun. I discovered military models that I didn't remember ever building them...
  21. Baker
    I started with the Vasa from billings, and after a long time I managed to finish the model. Don't do this. start small, good plan
  22. Baker
    Good idea I would do that too. And the masts are then sturdier during the installation of the standing rigging
  23. Baker
    Better than eeklo 😉. And, nice paint work

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.
