    No it wasn’t, running the rigging will be worse

    There is actually a cover that slides off he top of the hangar, it appears to be a trolley and a larger canvas tarpaulin for the larger section (I intend to roll it up beside it. The other Dericks I think are for ships boats that were sometimes stored on the bow section now the railing stanchions. This is going to take a while

    This is off the original plans in the early 1930’s, I’m trying to figure out how the winch was drawn up.

    It’s run to the finish’s line now. It’s taken a week or so to get lots of little things done, but this is a great feature on the ship. the kit only comes with 1 plane so I bought a 6 pack of them, and the upgrade comes with PE for two. the anchor chains were added and a aftermarket set of anchors which are better than the kit blobs. Tomorrow I’ll rig this crane and do up some rigging for the paravanes, then I can do the individual stanchions

    There a 2 sets of Smaller guns that have PE barrels which I replaced
  22. RGL
    Main guns, there is a nice little motto on the side of the aft gun
  23. RGL
    There are 6 high altitude AA guns, the kit is quite nice, but the barrels get replaced and I’ve added some extra panels on top (I would have required some surgery to cut the panels out.

    Hahaha description! You are kidding. You know as well as me there is a lot of ‘interpretive dance’ in Chinese instructions. ive gotten quite/ bit done this block of days off. Deck fittings next. Then ships boats, then I can step and rig the mast.
  25. RGL
    No I’m just going to replace it. The problem is I tried to peel it off the plastic backing thinking it was an adhesive deck which it wasn’t

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.
