Thanks mate, unfortunately unless I ever invest in a decent camera with a 50mm lens (closest to the human eye), and a decent set up with a light diffuser etc they will only ever be so so. This build was only really an effort to try camouflage. Battleships are just so much work with all the details but I’m still drawn to the old Dreadnought type ships and even the pre Dreadnoughts which are like steam punk cities.

Thank you all, Cog, I only use CA and fat fingers, that explains why autocorrect did not pick up Davits and placed habits.

Glad you’re back. I love the deck, but for some reason my last deck was ever so slightly uneven as well whehich makes it difficult when you drill the stanchion holes. If I can suggest, Eduard 1/350 German railing stanchions are actually 1/200, are perfect for you build AND have real chain (ish). They would be perfect for this build. Trust me on the scale I measured it. Greg

I seriously never want to see one again. For some reason it didn’t like CA (I think it’s gone off), V1 got knocked off the desk by (I suspect) the wife turning off a lamp, smashed to bits, V2 would just not stick and V3 is barely satisfactory. The Pontos set does not include ships habits and the kit ones are horrible. I had some spare from my Dreadnought build but need a lot more, $6 worth of davits hopefully arriving tomorrow to finish this build.

Whatever you said about converting script lost me completely. With you language skills I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Welcome to my world of breaking drill bits. Once you start you will never go back.

They’re already selling the barrels and mast sets, but I’ll just wait for the full set. Little bit to go on KGV yet.

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.
