    One runs out of superlatives to lavish on this model. David, outstanding job!

    Pat, I'm glad your research paid off! The frustration of low yield results just lets the air out of one's build efforts.

    Hank, welcome to MSW. I look forward to seeing your work.

    MCB, I think the stern stack supports look great. Your Isis model gets better looking with each new post.

    Phil, good to see you back up and running. Sorry to see Hannah take a hit but certainly glad it wasn't worse. Moving takes a toll on everything and everybody.

    Good eyes MT, that's funny but actually the photo is the seller's photo she posted in Facebook Marketplace. Keeping Emma out during the move in will be an issue, she has been all over that case since Daddy brought it home......stupid cat.

    If I tilted the Tennessee just right going in stern first and didn't sneeze I think I could get her through the door......not a good plan. I'll need to remove the mirrored back to place the Tennessee inside. The mirror is glued to quarter inch ply which laps and is stapled to the rear stiles and rails. Once I have the back off I'll need to rework the back and make it a sliding panel to make removal easier when the model needs to be removed at some point in the future. Speaking of back, thank you Pat and Mark for having mine and thank you to all for stopping by and the likes.

    A beautiful neat little piece, very detailed at that scale.

    Bill, welcome to MSW. Once you've decided on a model, please consider starting a build log.

    Bitao, please share.

    Chris, great first day out, I don't think you could have asked for better weather. It's nice to see the perfect finish to someone's hard work. Did your mouth hurt from all the grinning?

    Col, welcome to MSW. I do hope you'll start a build log.

    I bought this used display case today. It's lighted with a mirrored back and measures 46 x 26 x 13 inches ID, the Tennessee is 40 x 22 x 12 inches. It's not your traditional model ship display case but for $65.00 I couldn't pass it up. Keith, Pat, and Mark, thank you and thank you to all for stopping by and the likes.

    This is a "how to" build log on this very subject. It's an amazing build log.

    Birchwood also makes a Plum Brown liquid. I've never used but have wanted to.

    Drummer, welcome to MSW.

    "That's nothing Keith, look at their coveralls. A little honest dirt never hurt anyone." Gary, that was back in the day of ringer washers. No wife or mother was going to contaminate their washer with that nonsense. The guys probably wore them till battery acid finally did em in. Incredible realism, Gary. I'm so there.

    David, great photos. Such a pretty little thing, really an amazing piece of workmanship.

    Very realistic sails, starting with post #189, page 7.

    Tim, welcome to MSW. Looking forward to seeing your Swift build log.
  22. Keith Black
    Chris, congratulations. Well done, I hope every minute on the water is a tonic for the soul.

    Pretty Boy needs to be assigned to the poop deck.

    Tim, I'm glad you liked it.

    David, welcome to MSW. I look forward to seeing your build logs.

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.
