    Yes, GrandpaPhill, that’s right. Strips of adhesive tape in 2-3 layers, depending on the required thickness of the putty strip. It must be taken into account that liquid putty has its own amount of shrinkage when drying.

    Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you! But this means that I have room to develop my professional skills.
  3. Valeriy V
    Thanks Greg! It is these models made at the beginning of the last century that inspire me.
  4. Valeriy V
    Yves, no need to worry! This method has been tested in practice by more than a dozen ship modellers on floating ship models.
  5. Valeriy V
    Yes, undoubtedly, paint helps strengthen the edge.
  6. Valeriy V
    As a result, the hull looks like this.
  7. Valeriy V
    After the car putty has dried, I check the thickness using a 0.12 mm thick plate.
  8. Valeriy V
    Strips of masking tape are glued to the hull.
  9. Valeriy V
    Hi all! And I continue to work on the hull. The process of depicting external cladding belts. Marking of lines on the hull of the model.
  10. Valeriy V
    This is a very accurate remark! I have had to verify this many times. Great job, Javelin!

    Thank you, Jan! I realized this is the "cook galley"
  12. Valeriy V
    Thank you Joachim! Join us on the forum with your work!

    Need help identifying the name of the room near the chimney.
  14. Valeriy V
    Thank you, Nils! They are needed for the pillars of the navigation bridge. There are none in the aft part of the spardeck.
  15. Valeriy V
    Yes, Keith, the ship's structure is riveted. Welding at that time was just beginning its journey in shipbuilding.
  16. Valeriy V
    General view of the deck.
  17. Valeriy V
    Poop.
  18. Valeriy V
    Spardek
  19. Valeriy V
    Hi all! I finished covering the deck with metal. Forecastle.
  20. Valeriy V
    The great news doesn't have to end, Keith! I wish you a speedy successful recovery!
  21. Valeriy V
    Andy! I'm already used to it and it will be difficult for me without it.
  22. Valeriy V
    Hi Jan! Yes, that’s exactly it, the hatches could open to 2 opposite sides. A bracket between the hinges to tighten the lid in stormy conditions. I'll install bolts there later to tighten it down.
  23. Valeriy V
    It is interesting that according to the staffing schedule, these ships only had 2 officers. It is possible that they are both shown in the photo. Although the midshipman could have been a guest.
  24. Valeriy V
    Yes, Roger! The problem of overload on these ships was big. Therefore, in every possible way they tried to lighten the structures.
  25. Valeriy V
    Yves, this is not entirely true. This is a color imitation using cupronickel.

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.
