    Whimp I would too to be honest Cheers

    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"
  3. cog
    Gotcha build! This one I will thoroughly enjoy
  4. 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!!!

    I'd rather not ... mind boggling

    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

    Wouldn't you get the stepping issue at an angle ... trading straight for slanted lines/ripples ... Cheers

    "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!

    She's coming along mighty fine, Piet. Soon she'll be ready for her maiden voyage.

    Solid work on the stays Jesse. Looking good

    Nice study, what do you use for transparency, Nenad?
  19. cog
    At least her camouflage works
  20. cog
    Can hardly see her against that "rocky backdrop" She does look stunning already. Great work on the shading ... very, very nice

    Red/vermillion is a nasty colour to cover with a lighter one. Usually best to sand it of as much as possible and than cover with the lighter shade. Another option, prime it first with a light primer. Great details. You do get a lot of etail with the 3D printing, won't you be afraid it will stand out of the rest because of such very crisp details?

    Retirement ...? You just entered the most busy time of your life, at least, that is what all the retirees make me believe!!! Enjoy and make the most of it.

    A short and sweet build, Mike. She looks marvelous!
  24. cog
    Thought you're a glutton for punishment ... Nice stick though, even if it's made the hard way ...
  25. cog
    nearly missed the start ... NICE! Another build to enjoy. This paper modelling is pritty dark, it does miss the priming, and painting, but the PE is just as horrendous as on plastic!!

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.
