    Bob, I really like the stairs, they turned out well.
  2. Keith Black
    Wonderful! Rick, do you live on a narrowboat? If so I'm envious.

    Chris, that looks so fantastic and again, it's really hard for me to believe it's paper. Extremely nice work.

    A Maggie update.....she's reached a comfort level (for her) and seems unwilling to push herself to try and reach her pre stroke self. At this point I]if something were to happen to me, there's no way she could care of herself and me. We're financially exposed so we've started looking at senior retirement facilities. Maggie is receptive to the idea but I'm pretty resentful as I'm not ready for retirement facility living but it is what it is. Thank you to everyone for following along, Keith

    Thank you, Pat. I've pretty much ditched the idea of recreating photo scenes. I think it's way too ambitious.

    Thank you to all for the comments and likes. Thank you, Eric. I'm kinda getting into painting these Shapeways figures though the 'less is more' approach is one I'll be taking going forward. It takes far too long to paint details that are not seen at normal viewing distance. I'm exercising myself needlessly.

    Daniel, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.

    Simply amazing, Roel.

    If you hold the bottle neck down........skip taking a picture.

    I guess branding and banding is also not spoken of? Jeez, there's lots of "B" works cows don't like. I certainly hope boats isn't on the list.

    Glen, that looks so cool! Cows are naturally pessimistic and rightly so.
  13. Keith Black
    Very nice, Andy.

    Clive, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  15. Keith Black
    If I say yes I'm gonna have to burn my computer.
  16. Keith Black
    No because I don't wanna give my wife any more excuses than necessary to have me committed to the senile community center.
  17. Keith Black
    I admire your tenacity Mr Glen. Me, I'd be building a SIJ.......ship in a jar. It's looking positively grand, Glen.

    Martin, welcome to MSW. A ballpark guess would be 28 deadeyes and as many single blocks. Glad to have you aboard

    See Tennessee post #1030, pg 35.

    Amazing work.
  21. Keith Black
    Wow, Glen, that's perfect! I think I see some rifles in your future.
  22. Keith Black
    Keith, everything is looking peachy including Erebus's landing craft.
  23. Keith Black
    Tony, welcome to MSW. Glad to have you aboard.
  24. Keith Black
    I think it's our eyes playing tricks because the planking isn't completed.
  25. Keith Black
    Eric, she's becoming a dandy little model. Looks every bit like the photos, ya can't beat that.

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.
