    Congratulations Sam, the deed is done. I hope you and your missus will have the ride of your life, as calm, or as exciting as you wish it to be. Rest me to say take care of each other ... Cheers

    You're right ... a dry dock would be a 500% improvement
  3. cog
    stunning ...
  4. cog
    nice a bit like: Two roads diverged in yellow wood ... It does make a difference

    I didn't realise, but I just see the steps outside the upper deck cabins. A bit odd, as the middle deck cabins do not have the high instep ...

    Caulking would "taint" the taste of the contents. Ever seen a caulked wine barrel ? It's the liquid which make them swell and tighten the seems shut ... such a perfect system ...

    Are the images on an image server where you link to?

    Looking good! What's left, mate? Weatherin'?

    I'm glad I found your build before you are finished, or nearing the end as I did last time, Siggi. You didn't loose your touch after a year ... I think you even got better! I will enjoy your build from the side line

    Sand paper, or a sanding stick will mostly do, but a file or small plane can be helpful

    My offer still stands Lovely display case, Mike. Very handsome, something your build deserves!

    it's how she looks, the plank size is less important. Well done

    Be glad you didn't try the sharpness of the hand axe ... Princess is right, eventhough we do not like to hear what she has to say ... Take good care of that hand ... we are ever so patient, Nenad

    Luckily you used different materials, Greg ... else you might have been replacing those tiles for the remainder of your time with all them hail storms about Canberra... a never ending build More details than I expected on this one

    I used a "punch" (correct, it's called just that) Those barrels look marvelous. When I started at the top, I thought them way bigger, until the last image. Quite a surprise ! Lots of patience

    Done that, didn't work. Tried another browser, didn't work either ...It looks like the link to the image is broken. Do you use an external site where you keep your images?

    I first thought your wife needed a platform I'm glad I can leave the struggling to you. Very impressed by the amount of detail and the number of tiny parts you have to deal with. Hope you got rid of that flu for a long time.

    Inspiring work Pat. She's becoming quite attractive with the make-up you add

    Nice work on the hood. It even starts to look like a mill

    Funny what some paint does to an object ... suddenly you've got a smashing ship's mast. Looking good
  21. cog
    Use white-ish paint for the froth, and let the blue shine through

    That's why thatch at scale is sold here ... Pages are in Dutch, but some will get the drift with a translator Thatching on a model mill Shop selling the thatch You could actually order it, have it delivered at your mums and take it back with you, or send it by postal services ...
  23. cog
    I get the same odd behaviour with the images in your last post
  24. cog
    I know what you do, but is it visible in real life, or just as hard to spot as on the photograph - actually I can't see the details ... at all
  25. cog
    Or cold beef jerkey with after effective enemy broadside ... Well done Mark. They look the part, splendid detail as well

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.
