Catching up, Marc and what great work you're doing! I particularly like the capstan. Very interesting work with the Bondo. If it does release from the mold intact, it is a process I must remember to try sometime. Gary

Really nice progress, Phil. The rack of instrumentation looks great and nice job on the itty-bitty drawer pulls. Gary

How have I missed this build until today? Another great subject and masterful craftsmanship at every step. Once again, Valeriy, your brass work is a tour de force and so instructive to follow. The geometry of the ventilator visors realized as a flat strip of brass (even if pieced) strikes me as rather tricky. Fantastic work! Gary

Such a beautiful model, JC. Excellently built and weathered with a very realistic look and authentic feel. Congratulations! Gary

Yes, cameras typically have a difficult time deciding color temperature under artificial lighting when the white balance is set on auto. Sometimes you can get better results setting it manually. And generally speaking, I have found slightly overexposing an image will provide truer colors. But anyway, I think your backdrop and those clouds look great. Fantastic work, Eric! Gary

Hey Eric. First, those are very nice images - especially #1. I love the low angle light of winter and can almost feel how crisp the air is. Secondly, I think you did a great job of representing that sky in your backdrop. If anything, I feel the clouds could be a touch whiter, but I suspect that's simply a camera white balance thing. The blue is spot on. Very nice work and an interesting log. Gary

Superb 3D modeling of that double winch, Phil. That's very practical and sort of a virtual rehearsal in making sure it's all going to fit together. Nice progress. Gary

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.
