    Super ... Patrick, I see you are a man whom likes his curves I'm ready anxious and waiting on al those magnificent steps in this build. You always seem to pull a rabbit out of a hat at some point ... curious what you'll come up with this time ... when I look at it's size compared to shadow, you'll have your hands full with the size of your interior decorating ... I would like to see a golden tap in the bathroom if you have the time

    i like the photographs from ships with the unpainted PE, as well as the painted. However the unpainted versions do have an unpainted ship as well. I wouldn't know if the remainder of the ship being painted wouldn't make it look strange with the bare PE ... Looking forward to your plastic en PE journey

    Naturally, and it swivels too ... it's a 1 € cent in the backgroud, isn't it! Goodness ... it's small

    Looks rather grand ... although i would let the Dr 1 should fly too. Prop looks good! It suddenly struck me ... Any reason why you left the left side of both plaines uncovered, and didn't alternate?

    A very commendable build, Mike. I like how it turned out ... half naked you should let those two battle it out at the ceiling, you'll have some noise whilst building the next challenge

    I presume you didn't cast them yourself, although it wouldn't surprise me if you did. Those look a lot more sturdy than the ones bent from wire ... very nice, and crisp looking ... a real asset to your build Cheers

    Roger, To get it clear for my layman's "brain", by increasing the length of the rope the required power is diminished, something like the leverage one gets from a longer pole vs a short one? Cheers

    Another little gem finished. You are gathering quite a fleet! I am curious how you will tackle the next one. Any drawings found yet? or is by your minds eye ...

  23. cog
    It pains my eyes, how small
  24. cog
    Keep it up, a few more to the top ... and then the other side ... you are doing marvelous

    Piet, Why didn't you remove part of the lower hull to make it more like a waterline model? Since you do not make the water opaque, you can still do that ... What you also can do, make a filler from some (foam?) board to increase the contents, cut out the shape of the hull as to fit the Java in the position you want her ... less polymer to poor in ...

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.
