    I bend so the grooves will be on the side less/not visible Cheers

    I have been absent for a while, and you have made some wonderful additions to her. Looking forward to the rigging ... Cheers

    Than I'll charge you for ... hmmm ... $ 1.000.000.000 Nice work Mark. It certainly is a tedious part of the build, but wait for those 2mm blocks to be rigged ... you might reconsider ...
  4. cog
    Nicely done

    It sounds like you have been looking at an other diorama here at MSW! It sounds interesting, I do wish you luck, although I think you hardly need it with your prowess'

    putty,, modeller's putty ... Tamiya or Milliput. I've seen someone making sandbags with the latter, and rather convincing - it's a two component type, Tamiya has an epoxy putty which might do the trick ... I've done some work with the other, the black type when you put it on the barrel you can shape it in the image of the original blast bag ... you can try it out on a plastic spruce from your build ...

    Ah, another of your famous "streched" builds full of surprises and additions can't wait to see where it will lead us spectators ...
  8. cog
    Whimp I would too to be honest Cheers
  9. cog
    Not as challenging as yours, this one is at 1:72. PE and some plastic ... I think I'll keep my eyes open for the one you're building a wee bit over 3"
  10. cog
    Gotcha build! This one I will thoroughly enjoy
  11. cog
    Nearly finished I see ... figures when I find out you started a new build log Looking good though

    It is in the eye of the artist how he/she shows the subject on canvas. It doesn't matter if a bear looks like a cat, as long as it's what you meant to paint. Look at bauhaus, cubism, and all the other art movements, but for photographic realism ...

    Pls do, I love that tri plane. made one from Edward in plastic and brass (1:72) and have a few boxes (plastic) stached to try out the different painting. I still would like to make a larger one from wood or something a like.

    HMS Hood: A step by step guide ... Looking good dispite the oeps at the bow, if you hadn't told me I wouldn't have noticed.

    When you buy from ebay, you even have to watch out it doesn't come from somewhere outside the EU, although, after brexit, you will be paying import duties for nearly every thing!!!
  16. cog
    I'd rather not ... mind boggling
  17. cog
    Thanks WEFalck

    Russ, I'm not writing about the intermittent stages, but the completed models Cheers

    Alan, You are confusing me: "Many images of the "stick" show it with a head, whereas others do not. " Masts are often refered to as "sticks" and masts too have a head ... for those wanting to throw a more or less pointed stick, here is some further reading. Maybe it was a javelin all the time, but only at the end a very blunt one

    Russ, Do you really think you can improve on those outstanding builds of yours!?!?!? Cheers
  21. cog
    Wouldn't you get the stepping issue at an angle ... trading straight for slanted lines/ripples ... Cheers
  22. cog
    "There is no real progress to report except that the new camera seems to be working nicely" ... at least we get better pictures we are talking detail!
  23. cog
    She's coming along mighty fine, Piet. Soon she'll be ready for her maiden voyage.
  24. cog
    Solid work on the stays Jesse. Looking good
  25. cog
    Nice study, what do you use for transparency, Nenad?

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.
