    Congratulations, Grant. Well done indeed!
  2. Keith Black
    But you've managed to make lemonade out of lemons and that's all that counts.
  3. Keith Black
    Farmer, welcome to MSW. You've chosen a hard profession for yourself, I hope you prosper. Glad to have you aboard.

    Pat, what Eberhard described or the booms were stowed closer to the hull, I don't see another alternative. Seems most models have the booms stowed forward of the main shrouds.
  5. Keith Black
    Grant, amazing.
  6. Keith Black
    HG, are you working on your knees on the floor? if so you're much younger than the most of us. Truly a lovey model.
  7. Keith Black
    Kevin, you might try these folks. https://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk/materials/covering/tissue?is_ajax=1&p=1

    No penguin, no polar bear, third times a charm.
  9. Keith Black
    If there's not a corral for a miniature Shiloh incorporated on the main deck I'm gonna be highly disappointed.
  10. Keith Black
    That looks so realistic, Chris. Since I've started following your builds Ive been amazed at the quality of a build that can be achieved with card.
  11. Keith Black
    Not to highjack Bob's log but it's great to hear you're back at it, Pat.
  12. Keith Black
    Those are really neat, Glen.
  13. Keith Black
    Glad to hear you're feeling better, Eberhard. The tarpaulin looks very convincing and I look forward to seeing the cutter hanging from her davits.
  14. Keith Black
    An absolutely stunning model made even more so considering the scale and materials used.
  15. Keith Black
    Frank, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  16. Keith Black
    Grant, thank you for the tutorial on making sails from silkspan. I think your sails turned out great, very realistic at 1:300 scale.
  17. Keith Black
    Marc, I guarantee they're not seeing the light of day over at Ships of Scale. I want to continue this discussion but not here, I've highjacked Marc's build log enough, I'm moving further discussion on this to the "Gun Carriages" link. Marc, thank you for your patience.
  18. Keith Black
    Never say never, Dave. You're young enough to learn to carve and I'm betting you'd be pretty good at it.
  19. Keith Black
    The ladders turned out looking great, all of the second ship looks convincing. Nice job, Glen.
  20. Keith Black
    Please see page 16 of the below, maybe I'm misinterpreting what I'm reading.
  21. Keith Black
    Kortes, I think all the options look great. The last photo looks perfect to me.
  22. Keith Black
    What in the world it that at the mizzen top?
  23. Keith Black
    For those wishing to go down the gun carriage rabbit hole see the link below. https://thescholarship.ecu.edu/bitstream/handle/10342/7250/BUNYARD-MASTERSTHESIS-2019.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y

    Amazing detail and beauty on an insignificant item. You set a high bar, Keith.
  25. Keith Black
    Steven, what is the block size? I picked up some 3mm single blocks form Cornwall Model Boats a couple of years back, they are tiny little buggers. https://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/cgi-bin/ss000001.pl?page=search&SS=3mm+blocks&PR=-1&TB=O&ACTION=Go!

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.
