    I agree with with Siggi, Shipman. This would be a better topic discussed in the Nautical/Naval History section of the forum.

    I sit in awe with each new update, Roel. I half expect to see real men treading across the catwalks to their respective stations, simply amazing.
  27. Keith Black
    Steve, sorry to hear you have to give up modeling. I hope you can find that what makes you smile.
  28. Keith Black
    Peachy, Chris.
  29. Keith Black
    Coming along nicely, Bob.
  30. Keith Black
    The highlighting makes em pop, Chris. Much better than a flat ho hum surface lacking detail.
  31. Keith Black
    Thank you, Gary.
  32. Keith Black
    Outstanding detail work, LJP. Very very nice.
  33. Keith Black
    It was worth all the trouble, Chris. The hull is beautiful.
  34. Keith Black
    A soon as I show up you break the bowsprit, what am I going to do with you, Bob?......... wait a stinkin' minute, is Pyle back in town?!
  35. Keith Black
    Ah, got it. Have you managed to acquire all the line you'll need? Cotton, poly? Lacing 2mm deadeyes and tying to shrouds is a challenge everyone should accept at least one in their life.
  36. Keith Black
    Thank you, John. Regarding your Redjacket build, 2 mm deadeyes and single blocks and 3mm double blocks are available. I know they are available from Cornwall Model Boats but I would think they are also available here in the States. The below shows they would work and from experience they can be rigged but you either need great eyesight or a good magnifier. 2mm at 1:192 = 15.12 inches. 3mm at 1:192 = 22.67 inches.

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.
