    Even without the current situation I would have at least 2 or 3 hours of driving to get to a proper model/hobby shop that stocks more than railway or basic materials 😟

    Coming along nicely Eamonn, going to be a great little boat when she's finished. I will definitely be here if you follow on with Sherbourne 😁

    Stern fillers sanded, I'll mark the hull for the wales and think about what I going to use for a deck as I said great weather for sanding Cheers

    Tony and Derek, thank you. The bulkheads have been squared up and glued. I've put some fillers in at the bow and faired all but the last two stern bulkheads as I'm waiting for the glue on the fillers to cure. I have also cut a stem and keel from a piece of 5mm walnut but it needs a bit of work still and won't be fitted till I done 1st planking, although that said I'm still not decided wether to go with single plank or double. Thanks for looking in and the likes 👍 Cheers Not a lot happening due to weather being too nice to be inside! but great for sanding 😊

    Great work at a small scale! She is shaping up to be a beauty 😁👍

    Welcome

    Even though the etched deck is fantastic I do think that if you have the inclination and or the time an individually planked deck does add a certain something to a build, so I applaud your decision to go down this route. Speedy is looking fab 👍😁

    Hello, with my Triton and Winchelsea builds on hold, I am going begin on one of two models of a naval Cutter (the other one being about 1:32 scale from the same plans with some differences). So I used the Caldercraft Sherbourne plans of the kit I made last year, I scaled up by hand for the bulkheads and former, so the scale is not exact. I used some pieces of 4mm ply left over from other projects. Next up is fairing the hull, squaring and glueing. Bulkheads just fitted to check, not glued. Cheers

    Looking forward to seeing another Triton build and a pof one to boot. Good luck with your ship👍😊

    I'm in. As if I would miss it😊
  17. Edwardkenway
    Agreed OC. Also you're able to sand 1mm walnut a great deal more than you think, so when you think you're done do it again. I got that from someone (can't remember who) on here on my 1st build. As ErnieL said it's a good job, and will look even better with more planking done😊👍

    Great painting, very interesting subject too, I've seen plenty of mutiny era Indian army but very rarely late Edwardian/George V era I would be interested to see more!!
  19. Edwardkenway
    Totally agree!! Welcome to MSW
  20. Edwardkenway
    Eamonn I couldn't agree more, I think you'd do a fantastic job with Winnie😊 Ballahoo is coming along beautifully!!!

    Hello, after reading that you're going to kit bash to make Sparrow from the Richard Bolitho series I have got to watch. Hope you have fun getting there 😁
  23. Edwardkenway
    Looks great Jim, paintwork looks really sharp 😁👍
  24. Edwardkenway
    Looks like another good model on the way Craig and I never realized the Israeli army used Shermans. The things you can learn with this forum 😁 I never played any of those but then I was stuck in the Napoleonic wars and the AWI which I preferred as you didn't need huge armies.

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.
