    Building the chassis The base: the bottom and 2 sides was a challenge The next parts even more. (That's why it stayed in the box on the shelf for so long....) With time and patience . There is a chassis. Thanks for following

    further findings. Don't buy a new phone yet. On my Samsung smartphone, MSW works perfectly via Microsoft Edge. Try this first. msw via Google Chrome is still a problem for the time being.

    Nice start. I follow also And yes, I have also glued my fingers with CA glue. Advice, take your time. Building a wooden model is not a race

    Thank you for looking into this. Apparently the problem is in my smartphone. My wife has the same A22 as me and on this phone i dont have this problem. I guess I'll have to solve this myself. To be continued, I will let you know if I find the solution

    My phone is a Samsung A22 He did an update on 28 november. But the problems only started yesterday afternoon. (Now I use my laptop) Really weird When I watch MSW as a "guest" everything is normal. When I log in, problems

    Since this afternoon, MSW looks like this on my Samsung smartphone. No settings have been changed and the phone has been restarted

    Yes, but : but I was a bit lazy. If I have calculated correctly. I need at least 30 meters of treenail material, only for the hull ( one side was 15 meter)

    Not so far away from Verrebroek Small "two-week" update location the location of the holes, drilling the holes and hammering treenails : a slow but steady work in progress

    Small update. A Hetzer ready for painting And a camouflaged Hetzer.

    If you use linen, you can rub the sails with beeswax. This makes the linen less "fluffy" and a bit stiffer. And yes. Linen sails are actually a little too thick for this scale (1/45)
  16. Baker
    Just an idea. Why don't you make 2 if you're going to scratch build. One with all the tools for models under construction. and one as a "showroom" for finished models

    Nice work

    To return to the original question. A wale is not mounted on the planks. But it is actually a thicker plank (beam). which is mounted before the hull planks are applied. So it is in the same line as the planks and can not cross the strakes.

    Thank you The Airfix Matilda is actually their old model, supplemented with newly designed pieces for the Hedghog. I think a Hetzer is always something special. For this Hetzer, I think parts were "borrowed" from the Esci Hetzer

    My last 4 "modern Russian" kits. All 4 are from ACE on a 1/72 scale We start with BREM-2, a recovery vehicle based on the BMP family. http://acemodel.com.ua/en/model/108 The box Content. As mentioned earlier, these are short run kits. Special but with some extra work... I've have this kit for years. One of the reasons I never started it, a lot of cleaning up to do And the first pieces don't cooperate from the start. But, with time and patience, a model will eventually emerge
  25. Baker
    Small update. Applying the tracks. A bit of fiddling, but now they are completely applied. And the Matilde is ready

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.
